The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
The UK Government sets a National Minimum Wage and a National Living Wage, which applies to all workers. The Government and Parliament are not responsible for setting minimum wages for particular industries. This is a matter for individual employers.
We have published a petition calling for the Government to increase the minimum wage, which you might like to sign: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/301749
