Workplace splits shift into two to avoid giving 45 minutes worth of a break?!

So my girlfriend works at Tesco, and shes doing her first shift of the day on self service, and then the other half of the day on produce. Anyway, the 12 hour shift is split at the 7 hour mark i believe, so she is “entitled” to a 30 minute break and then a secondary break on her “other shift” of 15 minutes only! when doing 12 hour shift your break is typically 1 hour and a half. Does anyone know if this is okay to do? They split the shifts with only a difference of 15 minutes! So she gets off then works her other shift 15 minutes later. I dont know if she realised or was explained this when taking the shift. Since they have never done this before. Edit: in case people are confused, its the same store.
