Under the revised Naming Scheme the Government will name all employers that have been issued with a Notice of Underpayment (NoU) unless employers meet one of the exceptional criteria or have arrears of £100 or less.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
To date 3 employers have made successful representations against being named and 8 employers have not been named as they had arrears of £100 or less.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
The Government has already named 55 employers. Between them they owed workers a total of over £139,000 in arrears and have been charged financial penalties totalling over £60,000. We will be naming other employers that do not comply with National Minimum Wage regulations soon.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
Anyone not receiving the minimum wage that they are legally entitled to should call the Pay and Work Rights Helpline on 0800 917 2368.<\/p>

Theft from a shop is one way in which the offence of Theft contrary to Section 1(1) & 7 of the Theft Act 1968 is committed. There is no specific offence of that title. The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) does not maintain a central record of the number of prosecutions<\/strong> for the specific offence of shoplifting. Identifying the number of prosecutions in which there was one or more charges relating to theft from a shop would require a manual exercise to review individual files which would incur a disproportionate cost.<\/p> <\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
The CPS does maintain a central record of the number of offences<\/strong> of shoplifting charged under section 1 of the Theft Act 1968 in which a prosecution commenced and reached a first hearing in magistrates\u2019 courts. It is not possible to identify the number of defendants or cases prosecuted from this data. The table below shows the number of shoplifting offences that reached a first hearing for the last five years:<\/p> <\/p>
| <\/td> | Theft Act 1968 { 1(1) and 7 }: Theft from a shop<\/p><\/td><\/tr> |
2009-2010<\/p><\/td> | 111,386<\/p><\/td><\/tr> |

It is also often the case that an individual defendant is charged with more than one offence against the same victim.<\/p> <\/p>"}
