Dr Luke Evans

Conservative — Hinckley and Bosworth

Speaking in the House of Commons on 13 January 2026

Debate

Finance (No. 2) Bill

Contribution

The hon. Member rightly points to the cumulative effect, but I am interested to see that her new clause 9 does not mention the Employment Rights Bill or the impact of the national living wage increase. Is it by design that the Liberal Democrats have not put those in, because they do not agree that they will have an impact on hospitality, or was it an oversight, and they are other cumulative effects that need to be considered when holding the Government to account?
