HC Deb 15 March 1960 vol 619 cc89-90W
88. Mr. Bellenger

asked the Minister of Pensions and National Insurance what arrangements are being made to collect graduated contributions from weekly and monthly wage-earners under the National Insurance Act.

Miss Hornsby-Smith

Weekly and monthly contribution tables are included in the draft National Insurance (Assessment of Graduated Contributions) Regulations now before the National Insurance Advisory Committee. My right hon. Friend will soon be submitting to the Committee draft Regulations, to be made with the concurrence of the Commissioners of Inland Revenue, providing

based on a traffic census to be carried out in August. Meanwhile, I see no justification for altering the decision given in answer to the hon. Member's previous Question on 16th December.
