Seeking evidence to inform the Low Pay Commission's report on the National Minimum Wage.
This consultation invited submissions of evidence to inform the Low Pay Commission (LPC)’s report on the National Minimum Wage (NMW).
The government asked the LPC to:
monitor, evaluate, and review the levels of the different NMW rates and make recommendations for wage rates
review the contribution the NMW could make to the employment prospects of young people
In making our recommendations in these areas the LPC is asked to take account of the state of the economy, including employment and unemployment levels.
