Britain) Ltd., of 41, Barnsole Street, Gillingham, Kent, do not operate a guaranteed minimum wage, that there is no guaranteed piece-work percentage and that no decision affecting wages and conditions can be resolved without reference to the firm in Germany; and if he will therefore revoke the residence permits of those foreign nationals responsible for administering this firm.
