The increased cost of part-time workers will particularly land blows on the hospitality and tourism sectors. We are extremely concerned about that. We will talk about small businesses more later. It is also very notable, when one looks at those sectors of hospitality and tourism, that it is not just young people whom they employ on a part-time basis; it is very often more women and people from ethnic minorities and poorer backgrounds. As I said, this is at entry level.
