answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 08/07/2014 answer text <p> </p><p>We do not believe there is a need for such a body. Under the Apprenticeships, Skills, Children and Learning Act 2009 (ASCL), apprentices are employed under an Apprenticeship Agreement, this ensures they are protected under the Employment Rights Act 1996. Apprentices' pay is covered under the National Minimum Wage regulations and HMRC is responsible for ensuring compliance with these regulations. HMRC provides comprehensive advice and guidance for employees through the Pay and Work Rights Helpline. This is available via the GOV.UK website at <a href="https://www.gov.uk/pay-and-work-rights-helpline" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/pay-and-work-rights-helpline</a> .</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member printed Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon question first answered 08/07/2014 15:24:38 answering member 4210 label Biography information for Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon
