Yesterday the £1,000 tax cut for half a million small businesses came into effect.
Businesses are facing higher costs because of global inflationary pressures, an energy spike and global instability – so we are working to support businesses through our new tax plan.
That is why the Government have raised the Employment Allowance from £4,000 to £5,000 allowing smaller firms to claim up to £5,000 off their employer National Insurance Contributions (NICs) - meaning half a million businesses nationally will get a tax cut worth up to £1,000.
This tax cut for businesses in Norwich will help them thrive and grow to help drive economic recovery.
