Regulations 3 and 4 are made as a result of the Treasury carrying out in the tax year 2024-25 a review of the general level of earnings in Great Britain in accordance with section 141(1) and (2) of the Administration Act. The Treasury have determined that, in relation to Great Britain, regulations 3 and 4 should be made under section 141 of the Administration Act to amend Part 1 of the Contributions Act by altering the rate of, and small profits threshold for, Class 2 contributions and the rate of Class 3 contributions. Regulations 3 and 4 make provision for Northern Ireland which corresponds to that mentioned in relation to Great Britain in the preceding recital, in accordance with section 129 of the Northern Ireland Administration Act. With a view to adjusting the level at which the National Insurance Fund stands for the time being and having regard to estimated benefit expenditure for the financial year ending with 31st March 2026, the Treasury think it expedient that regulation 7 should be made under section 2(2) and (3) of the 1993 Act. With a view to adjusting the level at which the Northern Ireland National Insurance Fund stands for the time being and having regard to estimated benefit expenditure for the financial year ending with 31st March 2026, the Treasury think it expedient that regulation 8 should be made under Article 4(3) and (4) of the 1993 Order. A draft of these Regulations was laid before Parliament in accordance with the provisions of section 176(1)(za), (zb) and (a) of the Contributions Act, section 172(11ZA), (11ZB) and (11A) of the Northern Ireland Contributions Act, sections 141(3) and 190(1)(a) of the Administration Act, section 166(10A) of the Northern Ireland Administration Act, section 2(8) of the 1993 Act, Article 4(8) of the 1993 Order and section 12(2) of the NICA 2022 and approved by a resolution of each House of Parliament.

One line that says what changes, such as "Halve the dog tax".
Who it helps, what it costs, what it fixes. It is what persuades people to support it.
A proposal here is not law. Support on Solon is evidence that people want the change; the official route says what it takes to make it law.
