Growth and Infrastructure Bill

Proceeding contribution from Andy Sawford (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 16 April 2013. It occurred during Debate on bills on Growth and Infrastructure Bill.

My hon. Friend is absolutely right to raise the issue of tax avoidance. Is there not also an implication for lower paid workers? The Minister has just told us that only the first £2,000 of shares will be exempt from PAYE and national insurance. Does that not mean that workers with, say, £4,000-worth of shares will be hit with a tax bill?
