Speaking in the House of Commons on 17 December 2024

Debate

National Insurance Contributions (Secondary Class 1 Contributions) Bill

Contribution

We have seen over the last five months that growth has already been impacted. Of course, the OBR has indicated that in two and three years’ time, growth will be impacted negatively as well. I do not think that one can hide behind those arguments. As I said, I hope that I am wrong, but I suspect that all the economic logic on the impact of this measure and what we are already hearing from employers indicate that that is not the case.
