Officials from the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy and the Low Pay Commission (LPC) speak to a wide range of stakeholders in relation to the National Minimum Wage. The LPC are an independent and expert body which makes annual recommendations on the appropriate rates for the National Living and Minimum Wages, and other low pay related issues. They carry out extensive research that draws on economic, labour market and pay analysis, independent research, and stakeholder evidence to inform their recommendations. That is why we always consider their advice when increasing the minimum wage rates.
