Ivana Bacik: The research the witnesses have cited is interesting and concerns a hypothesis around the reduction in the gender pay gap in the UK and Denmark being due to lower male wages, rather than increasing women's wages. Is there any more qualitative data about the nature of the male wages being reduced? I think the witnesses said it was to do with the broader economic context and there was no...
