Cheers Jon, hope you don't mind I borrowed your question for my local councils also.

Likewise stolen. Perhaps we should ask all local authorities this question?

Kylie, Alex,

Moer than happy for you--or others--to steal this question! Hopefully your local councils will have similarly small numbers of people earning less than the living wage.

All the best,

Jon
