answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 10/07/2014 answer text <p>The Government takes the enforcement of the National Minimum Wage (NMW) very seriously. HMRC review every complaint that is referred to them by the Pay and Work Rights Helpline. In addition, by collating and analysing data received from various sources, HMRC ensure targeted enforcement through robust risk assessment processes to identify employers across the United Kingdom who are more likely to be not paying NMW.</p><p> </p><p>I would refer the hon. Member to the answer I gave on 6 May 2014, Official Report, Column 111W, that HMRC deploys resources to risk, so work relating to a specific geographical area is not always undertaken by the NMW team based in that area.</p> answering member constituency South West Hertfordshire answering member printed Mr David Gauke question first answered 10/07/2014 16:07:43 answering member 1529 label Biography information for Mr David Gauke
