The Government wants to move from a low wage, high tax, high welfare society to a higher wage, lower tax, lower welfare society.</p><br /><p>The changes will ensure that work will always pay more than a life on benefits, support will be focused more on those on the very lowest incomes and the system will be fairer upon those who pay for it, as well as those who benefit from it. Taking the welfare changes in the Summer Budget together with the record increases in the income tax personal allowance and the introduction of the New Living Wage, 8 out of 10 working households will be better off by 2017/18.</p><br /><p>The Summer Budget publication also sets out illustrative examples (Table 1.8, p.40) of the combined impact of the changes to welfare, the personal allowance and the National Living Wage on individual households.</p> answering member constituency East Hampshire answering member printed Damian Hinds question first answered 19/10/2015 13:00:00 answering member 3969 label Biography information for Damian Hinds
