National Insurance Contributions (Reduction in Rates) Act 2023

[As Introduced]
A
BILL
to

This Act reduces the percentage of National Insurance that workers and employers have to pay. National Insurance is a tax that helps fund healthcare, pensions, and benefits, so lowering the rates means people keep more of their wages but the government collects less tax money.
