<p>The House of Commons Commission does not hold pay information about individual
contractor staff.</p><p>The House of Commons is an accredited London Living Wage Employer.
In order to obtain our licence the House had to satisfy the Living Wage Foundation
that no directly employed or contracted workers engaged on the Parliamentary estate
are paid less than the London Living Wage. We can confirm that to our knowledge no
contractor working on the Parliamentary Estate is being paid less than the London
Living Wage. It is a requirement in our contracts that contractors and sub-contractors’
employees working on the Parliamentary Estate are paid at least the London Living
Wage. Additionally, for House of Commons contracts and where the Lords and Commons
contract together jointly, contractors and subcontractors which provide services in
relation to our contracts, while not having a presence on Parliamentary premises,
are required to pay staff working directly on our contracts at least the London Living
Wage or the UK Living Wage if based outside London.</p>
