Rebecca Long-Bailey MP, Labour’s
Shadow Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, responding to
reports that nearly one in five apprentices are being paid less than the
minimum wage, said:
“That
there are apprentices who are paid less than minimum wage is unacceptable, that
the practice is on the rise is shocking.
“The
Government has not taken sufficient steps to enforce payment of the minimum
wage. Employment rights are only safe in Labour hands.”
