answer text <p>The Government’s view is that Clause 10 (previously Clause 8) of the Deregulation Bill is a common-sense measure with adequate safeguards. However, after listening to concerns about this proposal during the passage of the Bill, the Government has concluded that a better course of action would be for this measure to be considered as part of the package of measures recommended by the Law Commission to reform taxi and private hire vehicle licensing which the Government is considering.</p><p>The Government will withdraw clause 10 from the Bill when clauses 10-12 are debated at Lords Committee Stage on 21 October.</p><p> </p> more like this

answer text <p /> <p>The objective of the Minimum Income Floor is to incentivise work and protect the taxpayer against fraud or non-profitable forms of self-employment. Claimants who have the Minimum Income Floor applied, are not required to look or be available for paid employment.</p><p>Claimants who have started a new business in the last 12 months will qualify for a one year start-up period during which the Minimum Income Floor will not be applied to their claim. This is intended to provide self-employed claimants with the room to grow and establish their business during the start-up period.<br></p><p>As Universal Credit rolls out in a careful and controlled way, we will continue our Test and Learn approach to drive continuous improvement of the service ensuring it is built on experience and evidence.</p><p>Under Universal Credit we will be supporting people in low paid employment to get on in-work. We are committed to testing a variety of approaches to help people to earn more and will use the analysis from these trials to understand the impacts on all industries including the creative industries.</p>
