National Minimum Wage consultation outcome on consolidated Regulations

23 January 2015

The responses to this consultation show general support for the draft consolidated regulations and agree that the detailed rules are clearer and more workable.

The Department for Business, Innovation & Skills (BIS) launched this consultation in July 2014. It is a separate piece of work to the general consultation on the National Minimum Wage (NMW) and focused on a draft set of consolidated regulations to combine the 1999 NMW Regulations and the later amending Regulations and whether they would be clear and workable.

Most respondents said that even greater clarity would be welcome, particularly in the guidance. BIS will consider the various suggestions raised by respondents and review the guidance in 2015.
