Dr Luke Evans

Conservative — Hinckley and Bosworth

Speaking in the House of Commons on 4 November 2025

Debate

Supporting High Streets

Contribution

The amendment contains a bit of an oxymoron, because it says that the Government’s plan for small businesses “commits to cut the administrative burden of regulation for businesses by 25%”, but it then goes on to mention the Employment Rights Bill. Will the 25% cut in regulation take place before or after the Employment Rights Bill becomes law, and where will that cut come from? In all the measures that the Minister has talked about, we have not heard about that one.
