Majority Ownership?

Just had a call from an agency who stated that a "new policy" stated that they had to ensure that the contractor they were putting forward for a role is the majority shareholder (in the case of ltd). I pressed the agent to find out what the policy was and why but got the usual brush-off responses.

In my case it's not a stumbling block but I'm trying to work out what the motivation is behind that policy. Can anyone enlighten me please?

Why would it be a problem if, for example, my partner and I were both 50/50 directors providing consultancy through the same company?
