Debate
National Insurance Contributions (Secondary Class 1 Contributions) BillContribution
I will return to the noble Lord, Lord Eatwell, and his basic argument. He stated that the OBR has said that the overall impact of these Budget proposals will be to increase employment. That is quite a stretch, if you believe it. I find it difficult to understand, first, how it could say that and, secondly, how it could believe it. How can the Government believe that, given all the signs as to what is going on in the economy?
