Clause 1 - Payment of Class 1 contributions: Great Britain
National Insurance Contributions and Statutory Payments Bill
9:30 am
Mr Mark Prisk (Hertford and Stortford, Conservative)
The Paymaster General promised on Second Reading to provide the draft regulations, and I am satisfied that she has made the effort to do so, but will she reflect on the fact that we will not be able to scrutinise the Bill as we would wish, having had virtually no time to read the regulations and thus to understand how the Bill works? Given that this is a technical Bill, the technical details of the secondary legislation are even more relevant. Will she further agree to ensure that we are given the opportunity to raise such points on Report, even though that is not normally the convention?
