answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 06/03/2015 answer text <p>The Government supports businesses which choose to pay the Living Wage. The national minimum wage is independently set by the Low Pay Commission at a level which maximises wages without reducing employment prospects. It is for workers and employers to negotiate the level of wages above the minimum wage. This includes the Government as a procurer and an employer. Around 20 million employees, over 95% of the total, earn above the minimum wage, and the majority of public sector workers currently earn above the Living Wage.</p><p>The Ministry of Defence (MOD) currently employs 170 civilian staff in Scotland who are being paid below the UK Living Wage of £7.85 an hour. This represents 4.4% of the MOD civilian population based in Scotland.</p><p>We do not have access to the information required to provide equivalent data in respect of contracted workers' rates of pay, where paid by their parent company or recruitment agency.</p> answering member constituency Canterbury answering member printed Mr Julian Brazier question first answered 06/03/2015 14:44:43 answering member 77 label Biography information for Sir Julian Brazier
