I sense that my hon. Friend might be moving on. Does she see anything in the Bill that relates to the minimum wage that addresses the scandal of tips—I do not—and the fact that some employers can effectively steal tips from their staff? To me and many other trade unionists, that seems completely unacceptable and certainly against the moral spirit of the legislation on the national minimum wage, if not against the letter of the law. Does she, like me, want much stronger legislation to deal with that scandal?
