Cost of Living Increases

Written Question
Health and Social Care Levy
Monday 31st January 2022

Asked by: Christine Jardine (Liberal Democrat - Edinburgh West)

Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, if he will publish the full economic impact assessment underpinning section 4.6 of the Health and Social Care Levy policy paper.

Answered by Lucy Frazer

The Government has made a number of assessments of the impact of the introduction of the Health and Social Care Levy, which were published alongside the announcement. These include the distributional analysis of the impact of the combined tax and spending announcements, a technical annex in our plan for health and social care, and a Tax Information and Impact Note.

In their latest Economic and Fiscal Outlook, the Office for Budget Responsibility set out their assessment of the economic effects of the Levy, including the impact on labour supply and wages. This can be found here: https://obr.uk/efo/economic-and-fiscal-outlook-october-2021/
