Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, whether his Department has to help improve working conditions and employment rights in the fashion industry.

The Government takes enforcement of employment rights across the whole economy seriously. This is why the Government has more than doubled the budget for national minimum wage compliance and enforcement to £27.8 million for 2022/23, up from £13.2 million in 2015/16.
