Proceeding contribution from Baroness Laing of Elderslie (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 18 January 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Work and Families Bill.
Work and Families Bill
If we accept the Minister’s calculation of what the provision would cost the Government or the taxpayer to administer, will he accept that £400,000 is not a realistic figure to put on the cost to small businesses? It is not just a question of how many stamps are required and how many letters they post but of the time and the additional burden involved. Surely the overall cost for small businesses must be far greater than £400,000.
