Devolution: payroll legislation matrix 5 June 2019

UK policies continue to be devolved and the four nations have increasing legislative control over certain matters. To assist the payroll profession with this increasing complexity, the CIPP's 'Devolution: payroll legislation matrix' is available exclusively to CIPP members.

Devolution: payroll legislation matrix contains relevant payroll legislation as it relates individually to the four nations of the UK. The subjects are categorised where necessary and in alphabetical order.

It is intended to be a guide, not a definitive list and is a document that will keep changing as new regulations supersede existing ones.

The Devolution: payroll legislation matrix is a working document and members will appreciate that there can be a huge volume of legislation linked to any number of subjects. It would be surplus to the requirement to include them all so the key primary regulations are included with the most recent and relevant secondary legislation.

All links are up to date at the time of publication. The CIPP accepts no liability for errors or omissions.

The Devolution: payroll legislation matrix will be updated on a monthly basis when members will be alerted through News Online and directed to our Policy hub, where the Matrix will always be available.

If you have any comments or suggestions, please email the policy team directly.

To assist with its remit to recommend in October of this year the NMW and NLW rates to apply from April 2020, it published a consultation in March 2019. The current target for the National Living Wage will be met (subject to sustained economic growth) by April 2020. In the 2018 Budget, the Chancellor stated his intention to give the LPC a new remit beyond 2020 so the LPC also invited views in its consultation on how the existing target for the NLW has worked and on potential future arrangements. CIPP response In order to collect the views of members of the payroll profession, which includes both in-house professionals as well as professionals working in the out-sourced payroll service sector (which includes bureaux, accountants and book-
