A Bill to extend the National Living Wage to people aged 18 to 24.
House of Commons
19 September 2019
The bill would extend the National Living Wage to workers aged 18 to 24, so younger workers could be paid the higher NLW rate rather than lower rates that apply to the youngest workers. It aims to ensure 18–24-year-olds receive the higher minimum wage when employed, subject to the bill becoming law.
The bill is at the second reading stage in the Commons; if it progresses, it would move on to committee scrutiny and further readings.
