Proceeding contribution from David Gauke (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 23 November 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on National Insurance Contributions Bill.


National Insurance Contributions Bill

My hon. Friend raises a fair point. We are determined that in administering the scheme, Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs will adopt a light touch as much as possible. The problems of bureaucracy and avoidance would be much greater if we tried to drill down to constituency or local authority level as opposed to regional level. I assure him that our assessment is that gains for participating businesses will greatly outweigh any administrative costs that they may face.
