National Insurance Contributions (Termination Awards and Sporting Testimonials) Act 2019

[As Introduced]
A
BILL
to

This Act changes the rules so that termination awards (money paid to employees when they leave a job) and sporting testimonials (gifts given to retiring athletes by fans) are not subject to National Insurance contributions. Essentially, people receiving these payments don't have to pay a portion of them to the National Insurance system, keeping more of the money for themselves.

Presented by Mr Philip Hammond
supported by Lord Young of Cookham.
