As I previously advised, I have received the Low Pay Commission’s report on Universal Basic Income, and its accompanying research report which was prepared by the Economic and Social Research Institute under the terms of the Low Pay Commission – ESRI Research Partnership Agreement.

I am considering the next steps to take including the publication in due course of the two reports.
