I have spoken to quite a few small employers since the recent round of pay restructuring. Spillover is definitely a feature and it goes right up to people who are due a far higher wage. People peg themselves against what lower paid people are getting in jobs. I wonder where Dr. Redmond's data is from.

To ISME, will Ms. McCabe repeat the comments she made about the reports she mentioned on youth employment? I did not quite catch them.
