Speaking in the House of Lords on 9 January 2025

Debate

National Insurance: Employer Contributions

Contribution

I thank the Minister for that Answer. I welcome the Government’s announcement of the £515 million NICs compensation package as part of the provisional local government finance settlement, but I am disappointed that they have confirmed that compensation to local government bodies will not extend to town, community and parish councils. Could she explain why it is fair that some elected bodies are given financial support and others are not?
