PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
(9 December 2024)

Question Asked

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, if she will extend the Employment Allowance to (a) GPs and (b) other people providing public services.

Asked by:
Neil Duncan-Jordan (Labour)

Answer

The Government has not changed the eligibility rules on the Employment Allowance beyond removing the £100,000 eligibility threshold.

Government guidance on the Employment Allowance states that you ‘cannot claim if you’re a public body or business doing more than half your work in the public sector – unless you’re a charity’.

The eligibility of a specific sector or organisation will depend on the make-up of an individual business's work.
