Police Forces to Be Compensated for National Insurance Hike. The Home Secretary, Yvette Cooper, announced that police forces will be fully compensated for the upcoming rise in employers’ national insurance contributions. This assurance comes after October’s budget revealed a 1.2 percentage point increase in the rate, effective next April. Cooper confirmed the funding to cover this increase will be separate from the £500 million already pledged for neighbourhood policing. While the source of the funding for the national insurance hike remains unclear, it will not affect the allocated central government budget for law enforcement. Meanwhile, the NHS and other public sectors are shielded from this increase, though GP practices and hospices, classified as small businesses, are excluded.
