Should employer pay for the travel time between jobs?

Oddly enough the latest Private Eye has an article about the issue of workers not being paid for travel time between jobs. (Page 31 if anyone's interested.)
It quotes the Department of Business Innovation and Skills as stating that "time spent travelling on business, including between house calls, counts as time worked for minimum wage purposes" and claims that "associated expenditure" such as petrol "should be reimbursed". Apparently BIS advises any worker who believes they have an issue to contact the Pay and Work Rights helpline on 0800 917 2368.0
