Proceeding contribution from Greg Hands (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 4 June 2009. It occurred during Topical debate on The Economy (Supporting Business).


The Economy (Supporting Business)

Will he therefore tell us why he is hiking national insurance up by 0.5 per cent? from next year, for employers and those employees earning more than £19,000—a tax on the many, not the few?
