Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  Ko te £1.6 piriona i te tau te tereina rākau o te marae ahumahi kua mau ki te tūnga wiri. E whakaatu ana ngā tatauranga ā-ture kua tata ki te 80 ōrau te hekenga o te maha o ngā take i whakawakia e ngā kaimahi ki ngā kamupene. I kī ngā kaiārahi pakihi ko te whakatakoto utu a te Kāwanatanga hei whakawātea i ngā kerēme whakahē i te āhua nei kua mutu te ahurea kino o te "kaore he wikitōria, kaore he utu" i tipu i raro i te mahi. E ai ki ngā tatauranga ā-ture kua heke te maha o ngā take i whakawakia e ngā kaimahi ki ngā kamupene e tata ana ki te 80 ōrau. I whakahē rātau i ngā mahere a Labour ki te huri i ngā whakahoutanga mēnā ka riro i a rātau te mana i te marama o Mei, e whakatūpato ana ka iti ake te whakawhiwhinga o ngā kamupene ki te utu. Ko te whakaurunga o ngā utu i waenganui i te £390 me te £1,200 ki te kawe i tētahi kaituku mahi ki tētahi marae, ka whakahokia mai mēnā ka wikitōria te take, kua kite te 78 ōrau i te maha o ngā take mai i tōna whakatūnga i te Hōngongoi 2013, i whakaaturia e ngā tatauranga. Ko te tikanga kua hoki mai te taumata kerēme ki ngā taumata i kitea i te tīmatanga o te 2000s, i mua i te pikinga o te kore wikitoria, kaore he take utu i awhina i te maha ki te tata ki te 240,000 ia tau. I raro i te kāwanatanga o mua, i utua e te kaituku takoha te £86 miriona i te tau o te utu mo te whakahaere i nga marae. E whakapau ana ngā kamupene i te £1.6 piriona ia tau ki ngā utu ārai. He nui hoki te utu ki ngā kaituku mahi, e whakapau ana i te £1.6 piriona ia tau ki ngā utu ārai. I whakaarohia e nga Whare Tauhokohoko o Ingarangi te utu toharite mo te umanga ki te tiaki i a ia ano ki te kooti ko te £ 8,500, a ko te utu toharite o te whakaae ki te whakataunga ko te £ 5,400. He maha nga umanga i kii kua whakatauhia e raatau nga kereme i tautohetia e raatau, kaua ki te raru i nga utu e piki haere ana ma te haere ki te kooti. E mea ana nga minita ko te pūnaha utu hou e haere tahi ana me te tautoko pūtea mō te hunga e kī ana kua tukinotia rātau e ngā kaituku mahi hē, ā, kāore e taea e rātau te utu utu. I kii te Minita Pakihi a Matthew Hancock ki te Daily Mail: "Kua tino ngaro te ahurea utu a nga kaimahi. He maha miriona te utu, ā, i whakatūpatohia ngā pakihi kia kaua e waihanga mahi, nā te mōrea o te whakawhiwhia ki te utu mā tētahi kerēme hē....
80% te hekenga o te maha o ngā take i whakawakia ki ngā kamupene e ngā kaimahi. E tohu ana ngā kaihautū pakihi ki ngā utu hou i hangaia hei whakawātea i ngā kerēme taikaha. Kua whakahē rātou i ngā mahere a Labour ki te huri i ngā whakahoutanga mēnā ka riro i a rātou te mana i te marama o Mei.
