A Bill to prohibit the advertising of long-term unpaid internships; to regulate conditions of employment for paid internships; and for connected purposes
House of Commons
26 April 2013
This bill aims to stop companies from advertising long-term unpaid internships and to improve the fairness of paid internships. It would require clearer terms for paid internships, with rules on how they are advertised and carried out, and would include enforcement measures for those who break the rules.
The bill is currently at the Second Reading in the House of Commons. If it advances, it would move to the committee stage for detailed scrutiny, followed by further readings and potential passage to the Lords.
