answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/07/2022 answer text <p>The Living Wage Foundation provides a suggested rate of pay, rather than a legislated minimum wage. All HM Treasury employees are paid above the statutory minimum wage. HM Treasury are currently reviewing their 2022-23 London and National rates of pay in conjunction with this year’s Cabinet Office remit guidance. We are planning to implement new pay ranges across the department in August this year.</p><p> </p><p>HM Treasury does indirectly employ a number of agency workers and contractors. The rate of pay for agency workers and contractors will be determined by the company for which they work and not HM Treasury in line with The Crown Commercial Service’s minimum pay requirements which all suppliers must adhere to when negotiating contracts with Government Departments.</p> answering member constituency Havant answering member printed Alan Mak question first answered 13/07/2022 16:27:08 answering member 4484 label Biography information for Alan Mak

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 29/10/2019 answer text <p>This government is committed to paying people a decent living wage, which is being addressed through the statutory National Living Wage. In April 2019, the National Living Wage increased to £8.21 per hour, handing a full-time worker a further £690 annual pay rise. By 2024 the National Living Wage will rise to £10.50 per hour, reaching 66% of median UK earnings. The scope will be expanded to everyone aged 21 and over and is expected to benefit over 4 million low paid workers.</p><p> </p><p>The Government will always award contracts on the basis of the best value for money for the taxpayer.</p><p> </p><p>No staff directly employed by HM Treasury are paid less than the Real, or London Living Wage for London-based staff. Contractors must be paid at least the National Minimum Wage, or the National Living Wage for workers over 25, in line with statutory requirements, but the London Living Wage is not a requirement.</p> answering member constituency Middlesbrough South and East Cleveland answering member printed Mr Simon Clarke question first answered 29/10/2019 15:40:01 answering member 4655 label Biography information for Sir Simon Clarke
