PLENARY THREE
MOTIVATIONAL SESSION

Mobile escape room challenge
Those who attended the motivational session on the morning of day two were tasked with cracking the code to open a box containing the legendary Maltese Diamond.
The pressure was on, as teams were given just 45 minutes in which to solve the mystery and steal the diamond! This session got everyone’s brains working, communication flowing and was a brilliant experience for all involved.
FUTURE PAYROLL POLICY AND CONSULTATIONS Policy and research team | CIPP PLENARY FOUR
The CIPP’s policy team delivered plenary four of the conference. The team consists of: ● Samantha O’Sullivan MCIPPdip, policy lead
● Mathew Akrigg ACIPP, policy and research officer ● Lora Murphy ACIPP, editor of Professional magazine.
Samantha introduced the session, before handing the reins to Mathew, to discuss the mini-budget, announced by previous chancellor, Kwasi Kwarteng, on 23 September 2022. This gave an update on changes to: ● National Insurance ● tax rates ● off payroll working rules ● investment zones.
At the time of writing, however, much of the above had been altered again by current chancellor, Jeremy Hunt. It was still important to show how quickly new policies are implemented by government, and how payroll must be agile and react to that, with speed.
Lora then discussed the work the policy team gets involved in, when representing the voice of members and the wider payroll profession at government forums and within consultation responses. She then went on to explain how everyone can get involved, through surveys, think tanks and by approaching the team more generally. Finally, Samantha explained the policy team’s overarching strategy, and how it ACTS on behalf of members. Ultimately, the team meets the following criteria, in that they are: ● A PPROACHABLE ● C ORRECT ● T IMELY, and ● S PEAK UP.
