The Temporary and Agency Workers (Equal Treatment) Bill that has envoked controversial comment to date has been held up in government. The Bill, that would allow agency workers / staff the same rights as permanent staff, was voted to the wire and so it will now continue through committee stage whilst MPs suggest changes. Even greater uproar was caused when the Employee Relations Minister, Pat McFadden, took the decision not to vote at all.
