Lord Foulkes of Cumnock – 2015 Parliamentary Question to the The Lord Chairman of Committees

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Lord Foulkes of Cumnock on 2015-11-18.

To ask the Chairman of Committees whether any staff of the House of Lords are paid less than the recommended Living Wage for London, and if so, how many and in which departments they work.

The House of Lords Administration was accredited as a London Living Wage employer in November 2013. We have kept in line with changes to the Living Wage since. No staff employed by the House Administration are paid below the London Living Wage.
