Conservative — Isle of Wight East

Speaking in the House of Commons on 7 January 2025

Debate

Employer National Insurance Contributions: Charities

Contribution

I agree with the hon. Member. Broadly speaking, Age UK operates as small charities in individual communities. Age UK in the Isle of Wight, where my constituency is, also faces paying tens of thousands of pounds. On a national scale, that might not seem like much money, but it makes a huge difference at the local level and leads inevitably either to service cuts or to staff cuts. I agree with the hon. Member that no good can come of it.
