Employers' Contributions: Stratford-on-Avon
Asked by: Manuela Perteghella (Liberal Democrat - Stratford-on-Avon) Monday 3rd November 2025 Question to the HM Treasury: To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what assessment she has made of the potential impact of the increase in employer National Insurance contributions on SMEs in Stratford-on-Avon constituency. Answered by Dan Tomlinson - Exchequer Secretary (HM Treasury) A Tax Information and Impact Note (TIIN) was published alongside the introduction of the Bill containing the changes to employer NICs. The TIIN sets out the impact of the policy, including on businesses. The Government decided to protect the smallest businesses from the changes to employer NICs by increasing the Employment Allowance from £5,000 to £10,500. This means that this year, 865,000 employers will pay no NICs at all, and more than half of all employers will either gain or will see no change. |

Animal Experiments: Primates
Asked by: Manuela Perteghella (Liberal Democrat - Stratford-on-Avon) Tuesday 11th November 2025 Question to the Home Office: To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what assessment she has made of the potential impact of importing cynomolgus monkeys born in (a) Africa and (b) Asia for use in scientific procedures on the welfare of those animals. Answered by Dan Jarvis - Minister of State (Cabinet Office) The Home Office is committed to maintaining the highest standards of animal welfare regarding the use of non-human primates in scientific procedures. The use of cynomolgus monkeys in the United Kingdom is strictly regulated under the Animals (Scientific Procedures) Act 1986 (ASPA). The Home Office commissioned a comprehensive assessment from the expert Animals in Science Committee on the welfare implications associated with the use of non-human primates bred and imported for use in scientific procedures. You can find the report here: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/nonhuman-primates-bred-for-use-in-scientific-purposes. Following recommendations from the Committee, the Home Office has introduced a time-limited transitional period relating to the sourcing of non-human primates. During this period, the use of first-generation cynomolgus macaques will only be permitted where there is a scientific need, where there is an inability to reasonably source self-sustaining animals, where there is a robust plan to transition to a sustainable supply, and where their use will prevent culling, thereby reducing harm. You can read the Government’s response to the report here: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/non-human-primates-bred-for-use-in-scientific-purposes-response-from-lord-hanson. |

23 Nov 2025
Reading for Pleasure Education Committee (Select) Submit Evidence (by 9 Jan 2026) Reading brings a range of benefits to children, young people and their families, but the number of children reading for pleasure is declining rapidly. This inquiry will look at the reasons behind this decline and what can be done to reverse this trend. It will look at the benefits of reading for pleasure and ask how reading for pleasure differs among different groups of children. The inquiry will examine the role of schools, early years settings, libraries, and the home environment in supporting children to read for pleasure and ask what the Government could do to improve the situation. Read the call for evidence for more detail about the inquiry. You can submit evidence until 23:59 on 9 January 2026. |
