A message from the Chairman…

This year we are particularly interested in evidence on the likely impact of the National Living Wage (NLW) applicable for workers aged 25 and over. Our full remit from Government this year is as follows:

We are keen that they hear from as many of you as possible.

For those members wishing to meet the Low Pay Commissioners to discuss the impact of the NMW and new NLW, please get in touch with at the Secretariat on 0207 211 8772 e-mail: john.caseley@lowpay.gov.uk. And state that you are a member of National Care Association

National Care association will also be giving evidence to the Commission later in the year as we always do, so any comments you are able to make to support our position on your behalf will be greatly appreciated.
