Section 1 - Enforcement notices

This section inserted sections 19(2A) and (2B) of the National Minimum Wage Act 1998.

Section 2 - Short title, commencement and extent

Section 2(2) provided that the Act came into force at the end of the period of two months that began on the date on which it was passed. The word "months" means calendar months.[4] The day (that is to say, 8 May 2003) on which the Act was passed (that is to say, received royal assent) is included in the period of two months.[5] This means that the Act came into force on 8 July 2003.

Section 2(4) was excluded by section 3A(5) of the Agricultural Wages (Scotland) Act 1949 (as inserted by regulation 2 of the Agricultural Wages (Scotland) Act 1949 Amendment Regulations 2003) (SSI 2003/283)
