[2012] EWHC 3658 (Admin)

The Gangmasters Licensing Authority had not acted in breach of its "Dairy Policy" in prosecuting, under the Gangmasters (Licensing) Act 2004 s.13(1), a dairy business which had employed a herdsman supplied by an unlicensed gangmaster and paid by that gangmaster at a rate below the minimum wage. The Authority's practice of prosecuting dairy businesses which had employed such workers for more than 12 months was a permissible interpretation and application of the policy.
