Matthew Taylor, who became interim Director of Labour Market Enforcement on 1 August 2019, is set to leave the role today and no successor has been appointed as of yet.
Taylor’s contract has not yet been renewed and no-one else has been appointed. A tweet by Taylor earlier this week read, “it appears ministers would rather the Office had no leadership and was effectively unable to operate publicly than accept my offer to continue week to week (unpaid if necessary) until a successor is appointed – baffling.”
