uk-statutory-rates

UK statutory pay and tenancy deposit rules as published on gov.uk, for the rates in force from 1 April 2026: National Minimum Wage and National Living Wage by age band, the apprentice rate and the two-part condition that makes it expire, Statutory Sick Pay as the lower of £123.25 a week and 80% of average weekly earnings, and the England and Wales tenancy deposit regime. These are policy values, not derivable ones — a model without them does not reason its way to £12.71, it recites last year's figure with the same confidence. Every value here was read from the gov.uk page that publishes it on 2 August 2026.
