20
00:01:20,495 --> 00:01:24,775
Speaker 1: Bullock says surcharging has become too complex and confusing for

Speaker 1: the public to navigate. While the reforms also lower the

22
00:01:28,135 --> 00:01:31,695

23
00:01:31,735 --> 00:01:35,255

24
00:01:35,775 --> 00:01:38,895

00:01:51,535 --> 00:01:54,775
Speaker 1: the new ruling, employees aged eighteen to twenty will no

29
00:01:54,855 --> 00:01:58,615
Speaker 1: longer receive discounted wages and will eventually earn the full

30
00:01:58,655 --> 00:02:02,335
Speaker 1: adult rate. While the change won't apply to minus under sixteen,

31
00:02:02,495 --> 00:02:05,495
Speaker 1: it's estimated around half a million workers will be ellegile

32
00:02:05,815 --> 00:02:08,775
Speaker 1: for a pay rise. Unions have hailed the move a

33
00:02:08,895 --> 00:02:12,295
Speaker 1: landmark victory for equality. However, the new rates will be

34
00:02:12,335 --> 00:02:15,695
