Part 1: Labour Market and Illegal Working Section 11: Functions in relation to labour market
This section introduces a new schedule – Schedule 2 Functions in relation to the labour market – which defines the functions of the new GLAA in relation to the labour market. It enables the Secretary of State to arrange for the GLAA to enforce matters beyond its current remit (the Gangmasters (Licensing) Act 2004) to include the Employment Agencies Act 1973, the National Minimum Wage Act 1998 and Parts 1 and 2 of the Modern Slavery Act 2015.
	Subsection (2) allows the Secretary of State to give additional functions to either the GLAA itself or its officers, through regulations. This is because police-style powers are being given to its officers rather than the Authority itself.
