Written Question
Social Services: Pay
Monday 18th December 2017

Asked by: Baroness Keeley (Labour - Life peer)

Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, what estimate he has made of the number of social care providers that are eligible for the new Social Care Compliance Scheme through the use of sleep-in shifts.

Answered by Margot James

All social care providers who provide sleep-in shifts have the opportunity to apply for the Social Care Compliance Scheme; with the exception of those who have previously i) been prosecuted for underpayment of the National Minimum Wage; or ii) declined an invitation from HMRC to join the scheme.

The acceptance of any individual application is subject to HMRC’s discretion based on published criteria.
