National Insurance Contributions (Secondary Class 1 Contributions) Bill: Third Reading

Passed354 ayes · 202 noes

What the vote was about

This division was on the final Commons vote on a bill that increases the rate of employer National Insurance contributions. For Cornwall, where many businesses in tourism, farming and fishing operate on tight margins, higher employment costs could reduce profitability and limit job creation. The change applies to all employers from April 2025.
