MOLLY MAID Supports Tories Call for Tax Breaks to Hire Cleaners

MOLLY MAID Supports Tories Call for Tax Breaks to Hire Cleaners PR Newswire LONDON, July 24, 2012 LONDON, July 24, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Tax Deduction for Maid Service - A Question of Fairness and Taxes MOLLY MAID supports Tory Minister, David Gauke's view on tax avoidance revealed today. As the nation's largest employer in the UK's billion pound domestic cleaning sector, MOLLY MAID also says Prime Minister David Cameron's idea of implementing family oriented tax policies providing homeowners with the ability to write off a proportion of their house cleaning bills would create thousands of jobs and millions in new government revenues. MOLLY MAID, Chief Executive, Pam Bader OBE, strongly believes that as many as 250,000 new jobs could be created and £500 million collected in additional government revenue through VAT, National Insurance contributions and income tax. To Pam and her 1,000 strong workforce competing in an industry that is 98% dominated by the 'black market', David Cameron's remarks are music to her ears. "Most people don't think that housecleaning in Britain is as large an industry as it is or that it could play such a pivotal role in helping to get the country's finances back in order. In 2010, we calculated the industry to be worth just over £1.6 billion, but surprisingly more than £1.5 billion is carried out by black market cleaners," says Pam from her Head Office in Maidenhead, Berkshire.
