A shocking 37 Welsh employers were caught paying workers less than the minimum wage last year but none faced prosecution, official figures uncovered by Plaid Cymru have revealed.

HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) said 292 workers across Wales did not receive the minimum wage of £6.31 per hour.

And Plaid leader Leanne Wood, who made the freedom of information request, said yesterday that law-breaking bosses must be taken to court.
