Stoppage from PAYE pay....

with no notice as to why, my wife had a "deduction after tax" stopped from her wages, cannot see what for or why, waiting on a reply from the wages dept, she hasnt signed anything and never had it before

And she did the right thing by asking her employer what it is for. Let us know when she gets an answer.

"deduction after tax"

interesting  and a 'manual' entry   rather than the  typical  automatic attirubtions / choices in  typical payroll systems  (  e.g. 'advance  recovery  etc)

really need ot  wait for the answer from management/ payroll  , as  even the Unions  are ulikely to intervene before the individual has made   that request

I understood that legally only "standard deductions" (tax/stamp/pensions (if on over £15,000 PA) could be taken without consent and agreement, ive not been overpaid and all our tax codes are correct

£13 when im on £9.50/hr is 90 minutes pay to me

That's not entirely true. Payroll errors can also be deducted without agreement. And "agreeement" may be a contractual clause that she signed when she (or you - not clear who is posting here) started and doesn't recall. At the moment it is simply speculation - as others have pointed out, until you have an answer to the question it is pointless trying to speculate whether it is lawful or not.

this cant be a payrol error in at least 5 cases can it, but not 3 others...

If that £9.50 is gross, and you're at least 21, that's below the minimum wage of £11.44 an hour.
