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

To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, pursuant to the Answer of 16 November 2016 to Question 52385, how many of the 92 employers named by his Department for non-compliance with the national minimum wage on 5 February 2016 identified and paid further arrears, not included in the sum of arrears for which they were named, under the self-correction mechanism introduced by HM Revenue and Customs in 2015; what the combined total was of those further, self-corrected arrears; and to how many workers those further, self-corrected arrears were owed.

Employers who self-correct arrears owed to workers are not named for any additional arrears identified. Due to the small number of cases involved, publishing aggregate self-correction data could allow individual employers to be identified, and would amount to naming them for a second time.
