Proceeding contribution from Earl of Erroll (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Monday, 2 February 2009. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Industrial Action: Lindsey Oil Refinery.


Industrial Action: Lindsey Oil Refinery

My Lords, is the national minimum wage that applies that of the UK or that of the subcontractor? If it is the subcontractor’s, or in either case, what powers do we have to check that it really is paying that national minimum wage, because we presumably do not see the tax returns of the country concerned?
