Hairdressing Wages Council

Mr. Rooker
asked the Secretary of State for Employment if he has received any representations about the operation of the Hairdressing Wages Council from the Low Pay Unit; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. John Grant
I have received a copy of the Low Pay Unit publication "Fleeced Again". I had already started discussions about the future of the wages council, and I have arranged to bring the relevant parties together soon.
