HM Treasury has acknowledged the change to employer National Insurance contributions from April 2025 will increase costs for public sector employers and has said it will “provide funding to the public sector to support it with the additional cost associated with these changes”. We are working with HM Treasury to clarify the details.
The Welsh Government’s draft Budget for 2025-26, published on 10 December 2024 provides detail on the government’s draft revenue and capital spending allocations, including for the Arts Council of Wales.
