It is the ““Burdens Barometer”” produced by the British Chambers of Commerce. The hon. Member for North-West Leicestershire (David Taylor) was telling us how keen he is to represent the interests of small businesses, so perhaps he would find it a useful read. It shows, for example, that in just the past two years, the burden has gone up by £9 billion. That, of course, does not refer to the minimum wage at all, but if the hon. Member for Wolverhampton, South-West (Rob Marris) wants to read it, I am happy to pass it across the Dispatch Box, if the Minister will allow it to be passed on.
