Anne Main welcomes Chancellor's announcement on Class 4 National Insurance Contributions

15th March 2017

Anne Main welcomes the Chancellor’s announcement that there will not be an increase in Class 4 National Insurance Contributions (NICs).  

There are 7,000 self-employed individuals in St Albans, representing 16% of the economically active. I thank the Chancellor for listening to the representations that I made in my letter to him. Those people will welcome the three-year end-of-Parliament commitment that he has made on this matter, which gives certainty. He is absolutely right to look at this issue. He is a very honourable man in coming here and honouring our manifesto today, and he should ignore the criticisms from the Opposition.

 

I am grateful to my hon. Friend. I have to say that I generally find it much more fruitful listening to the advice and thoughts of my hon. Friends than listening to the comments from the Opposition.
