National Insurance Contributions Bill

Is my hon. Friend aware that he can pray in aid the judgment in the case of The Sunday Times v. The United Kingdom 1978–80, in which the European Court concluded that a citizen must be able, if necessary with appropriate advice, to foresee to a reasonable degree the consequences of a given action? That case required Governments to make their laws predictable and known to the citizens whom they are supposed to serve. If the Bill is enacted, does my hon. Friend share my view that it is likely to be challenged in the European courts because it breaches human rights?
