I move amendment No. 1:

To delete all words after “not to increase the national minimum wage; and” and substitute the following:“— instruct the Low Pay Commission to ensure that the national minimum wage becomes a genuine living wage from 2020 onwards, with appropriate legal protections for small- or medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) who can show they cannot afford to pay the living wage.”
