Clause 58 - Mileage allowances: nil liability notices
Finance Bill
11:00 am

Mr Stephen Timms (Financial Secretary, HM Treasury; East Ham, Labour)
There may be some misunderstanding here. Employers no longer need to report payments made under the statutory arrangements in the clause. There is no longer any need for dispensation because the position is set out clearly in statute. The only possible uncertainty would relate to other elements of the dispensations dealing with subsistence payments, as I said. I hope that I have provided full reassurance to the Committee. In future, the arrangements will be statutory, so there is no longer any need for dispensations.
Question put and agreed to.
Clause 58 ordered to stand part of the Bill.
