Temporary and Agency Workers (Equal Treatment) Bill

My hon. Friend makes a powerful point. Does he agree that if temporary workers have to be given the same pay and employment rights as permanent workers, the same argument can be used the other way around? Given that the time scale for the Olympics means that people will probably be paid more as temporary workers because of their skills, which will be used for a short period of time, the argument will be that permanent staff should be paid the same amount.
