Part of 2. Questions to the Leader of the House and Chief Whip (in respect of her portfolio responsibilities) – in the Senedd at 2:26 pm on 6 December 2017.
I assume the Member is referring to people being paid less than the minimum wage, and I share his concern that people should be paid the minimum wage in all business places. In my role as chair of the fair work board's phase 1, I've had a meeting with the enforcement authority, which is a UK-based enforcement authority, around the enforcement of the minimum wage, and we are looking at ways to ensure that the minimum wage enforcement provisions in Wales can be made better in order to—I completely agree—end the scourge of people being paid less than the minimum wage in any industry, anywhere in the country.
