Welsh Andy is right. A number of recent tribunals have found that internships should be paid at least the minimum wage. Unfortunately the interns in question might be caught between a rock and a hard place as an employment tribunal could not make a ruling unless the person had taken on the internship in the first instance.....
Whether this is covered by the RAO minimum salary provisions is open to question as no doubt the unit in question could argue these are not jobs directly classified as archaeological work....does standing as an RAO mean for example that all employees of an organisation have to be paid at the IfA minimum rate or just those employed in archaeological posts.

With peace and consolation hath dismist, And calm of mind all passion spent...
