This Government is committed to building an economy that works for everyone. Through the National Minimum Wage and the National Living Wage we continue to ensure the lowest paid in our society are fairly rewarded for their contribution to the economy.

The National Minimum Wage (Amendment) 2018 Impact Assessment includes an assessment of the number of people the Government expects to benefit from the planned increase in the National Living Wage to £7.83: http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukia/2018/24/pdfs/ukia_20180024_en.pdf
