The Government published an Impact Assessment that outlines the expected impacts of the change in the National Living Wage in April 2023: https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2023/354/impacts<\/a><\/p>

<\/p>

Overall, research to-date has not found a significant impact of the National Living wage on business failures. On average, the average total cost per business affected by the policy was between £3,000 to £4,000. We expect around 40% of the costs of this policy to be borne by small and micro businesses and 15% by medium sized businesses.<\/p>

The approach to assessing the potential impacts on investment within the statutory scheme\u2019s impact assessment followed well established precedent and is in-line with the Green Book paragraphs 6.5 and 6.6. As such the impact assessment considers spill-over benefits of investment, with a literature review suggesting an estimated mean benefit of 34% of the overall investment, but does not account for these within the net present value calculation due to investment being one of several possible company responses to change in profitability.<\/p>

We are in the process of analysing the responses provided to the consultation on this statutory scheme and will update on our preferred policy approach later this year.<\/p>
