Research direction

Start by reading the linked 2021 UKMOD report and checking the UKMOD forum for its treatment of the employer National Insurance reform. Identify the existing policy-model entry point for this reform, if available, then compare its behavior with the report. Done means documenting whether the implementation matches UKMOD and recording any discrepancy.
