    I'm actually question by question. I'll be taking notes just here in the background as well. Thank you, Juliet. So we'll just kind of flow from a strategic, just question by question. Just feel free to unmute, raise your hand, speak through…

  2. 1:28

    i'm sure cat would have some like hr would have something to say on this as well actually i really might be interested you know what justine or someone might have some thoughts i mean from from an actual cap perspective as well as a um you …

  3. 2:30

    aware of this. It's just an explanation. No, it's fine. I'm not sure what external impact we've seen. I think it's interesting, isn't it? Because you hear a lot of comments about I don't know some of the, I need to be careful what I say, be…

  4. 5:56

    at all? I mean, I'd be lying if I said I had any great insights into this area. So I'm not a debt advisor anymore, so I don't see budgets to the same level that I did previously when I was. So, yeah, I wonder whether we could... My gut inst…

  5. 10:00

    come and visit us as an employer of 300 staff and the like. Yeah, I was literally going to talk about this because I just wondered if there was a, if we had any comparison between national living wage, because it's not as high as real livin…

  6. 12:43

    yeah, I think it's kind of a bit too early for them to even be trying to see how that's affecting people. I think it could be... A point to be saying about how increases in energy costs, for example, and other essentials and the high food c…

  7. 14:38

    is it? Helen? No, I was just going to hook on to the energy thing because I think actually, let's be real, they sent this out now. They gave a 4 .1 % was an increase and then they face a 13 % increase if they're on a standard variable tarif…

  8. 16:24

    I was basically about to say pretty much the same thing as you, Helen, if you pick me to the post. Just, yeah, pointing where those statistics are and also bringing out from the client report and deficit budgets. If we can, I'm not sure tha…

  9. 17:41

    I'll move on to question two in this section. We touched on it already, but essentially the question is just what's happened around the quality of work recently. So that's contract types, flexibility of contracts, treatments in the workplac…

  10. 19:05

    of those. Like, people are still feeling the anxiety around, oh, what will happen because of AI, what will happen because of this, that and the other. And you can kind of pull out probably some of the quotes that we had from the focus group…

  11. 24:09

    to ask. Yeah, because that's something that we've pushed for in the past. So if we can get that... in here as well um these guys aren't probably the people for it but at the same time the more that we can say in all potential places we coul…

  12. 25:41

    was just going to say in terms of how it interacts with universal credit, it's worth noting, like universal credit is, if you understand it, It's not super complicated, but it's still not straightforward. But the vast majority of people who…

  13. 27:16

    Yeah, I think that is a good point. And I think. Almost that could be one that we lean into of just saying like actually it's perceptions and understanding. And you could be bringing in just the need for plain numbers and like plain languag…

  14. 30:00

    a polling that was in Burris to Work report on like people's perception of age being a barrier for them but acknowledge that it's their perception that's not necessarily the reality but how almost you have like a kind of valley where you ha…

  15. 32:57

    I don't know whether we would ever make this point, but if a 16, 17 year old then goes into work, you know, maybe an apprenticeship or something like that, or training or just an entry level job, then any benefits that if they are still liv…

  16. 34:49

    I think it could be a short response that says, yeah, we welcome that they're trying to address this, but would encourage this to be done without delay. Thank you, thank you. Next section is around apprentices. So what are your views in eff…

  17. 36:16

    the reality of the situation is that there's a push and there's a pull, isn't there? Like, we're going to be pushing on one side for them to have the way or things to be increased because the cost of everything is going up. But on the other…

  18. 37:23

    Perfectly acceptable. Perfect. I'll move on to the next section. I don't know how much you can contribute to this one either. It's around compliance and enforcement. So it says, what are the issues? What issues are there with compliance wit…

  19. 38:26

    What enforcement work is HMRC actually doing on this? Do we have any... My cynics' mind would suggest that this is probably not really high on their list of priorities because it doesn't get any money into their own pockets. It would probab…

  20. 39:45

    two questions. So accommodation offset. So what has been the effect of recent increasing the offset on employees' decisions on the provision of accommodation? Again, I'm not sure if we have any insight or input into this one. I think we can…

  21. 40:49

    Yeah. I think you just could use this as a bit of a summary opportunity to rattle through the points that we've already made of saying how, at the moment, not everyone's receiving a living wage. So, like, people need enough to be able to af…

  22. 43:21

    you froze for a bit. Apologies. I just, I don't think it was your side. I think it was... No worries, but thank you so much for your input. Some of the questions, I didn't think we'd have much to say and we've got quite a lot to say. So it'…
