answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 11/02/2016 answer text <p><strong> </strong></p><p> </p><p> </p><p>The Government has introduced measures to help businesses with the transition to the new National Living Wage. The Government is reducing corporation tax to 18% by 2020, setting the Annual Investment Allowance at a new permanent level of £200,000, and increasing the Employment Allowance from £2,000 to £3,000. The increase in the Employment Allowance means a business could employ four people on the National Living Wage and pay no National Insurance Contributions. It will benefit up to 590,000 employers and take up to 90,000 firms out of National Insurance Contributions altogether. These measures will help small businesses across the country.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Grantham and Stamford answering member printed Nick Boles question first answered 11/02/2016 15:27:25 answering member 3995 label Biography information for Nick Boles
