The Smith Commission reported on 27 November and the Government has announced it will now prepare draft legislative clauses to implement the Heads of Agreement by the end of January. The Smith Commission did not agree that corporation tax would be devolved to Scotland.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
The Wales Bill, currently in Parliament, provides the legislative framework to support the implementation of the recommendations made in the first report of the Commission on Devolution in Wales (Silk Commission). The Wales Bill does not feature any devolution of corporation tax powers to Wales.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
At Autumn Statement 2014, the Government announced that the devolution of a corporation tax rate-setting power to Northern Ireland could be implemented provided that the Northern Ireland Executive is able to manage the financial implications. The parties in the Northern Ireland Executive are continuing talks aimed at resolving a number of issues including agreeing budgets for 2015-16 and putting the Executive\u2019s finances on a sustainable footing for the future.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
Northern Ireland faces unique cross-border challenges from the very low corporation tax rate in the Republic, significant over-reliance on public sector employment and the challenging legacy of the Troubles. The devolution of corporation tax to Northern Ireland recognises those factors and is consistent with the UK\u2019s asymmetrical approach to devolution.<\/p>
<\/p>

Any devolution of tax powers, such as corporation tax rate-setting powers, would require a corresponding reduction in the block grant to reflect the tax revenues that the UK Government would forego.<\/p>

We are building an immigration system that is fair to British citizens and legitimate migrants, that is tough on those who abuse the system or flout the law, and that ensures people come to the UK for the right reasons \u2013 to work hard and contribute to our economy and society.<\/p>
We have cut net migration from outside the EU by nearly a quarter since 2010 \u2013 close to levels not seen since the late 1990s. We have also clamped down on nearly 800 illicit colleges, reduced 45,000 visas from the further education route; and cut family visas by nearly a third since it came to power.<\/p>
Our reforms have also made it more difficult for EU migrants to claim benefits in the UK and, through the landmark Immigration Act, made it tougher for illegal immigrants to remain by restricting access to work, housing, benefits, healthcare, bank accounts and driving licences and making it easier to remove those who have no right to be here by reducing the number of appeals.<\/p>
The Government has reformed benefits, healthcare and housing rules to make them among the tightest in Europe and we continue to see an increase in the number of British citizens in work. In the past, the majority of growth in employment was taken up by foreign nationals; in the last year, two-thirds of it was accounted for by UK nationals. This shows that our immigration policy benefits UK nationals first while still attracting skilled migrants needed by British business.<\/p>
However there is more to be done. The Prime Minister set out further measures to reduce migration, including EU migration, in his immigration speech delivered on 28 November.<\/p>
