Part of Bill Presented — National Insurance Contributions (Rate Ceilings) Bill – in the House of Commons at 1:48 pm on 14 July 2015.
People will be receiving the new national living wage, as set out by the Chancellor in his Budget. That is a huge step forward, raising the incomes of millions of people throughout Britain. At least 2.6 million people will benefit directly, and a further 6 million will also benefit. I am sure that the hon. Gentleman will join me in welcoming that.
