Conservative, Salisbury
To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, when he plans to publish the call for evidence on implementing a ban on unpaid internships.
Justin Madders
Minister of State (Department for Business and Trade), Parliamentary Under Secretary of State (Department for Business and Trade)
The Make Work Pay plan is a core part of the mission to grow the economy, raise living standards across the country and create opportunities. It aims to tackle low pay, poor working conditions and poor job security.
The government is committed to banning unpaid internships except when they are part of an educational or training course. A call for evidence on this will be published in due course.
