The upcoming EU directive on minimum wages was mentioned.

It is interesting how the Department actually referred to it in its submission for this morning: "The Directive does not prohibit the use of sub-minimum rates but requires Member States to ensure the objective justification of these rates." Would I be correct in saying there is implied support for prohibiting sub-minimum rates in the directive?
