Rejected petition Set a professional minimum wage for the professional driving industry.

More details

With the shortage of people within the driving industry the needs to be seen being as proactive as possible and bring in new blood into the driving industry setting a professional minimum wage for these jobs would be seen as being proactive and attract new drivers into driving jobs within Britian.
