There is, of course, the view that higher levels of taxation are necessary (from the government's POV) to soak up the effects of credit injections (actual inflation) by the central banks (globally), which generate price increases (aka inflation in common parlance), because high levels of inflation reflect poorly on the government in power (and inflation is also used to discount GDP figures, another important metric.) It's all very short sighted but they won't be around to deal with it, we will.
It just amuses me that what they will present as a way of preventing agencies from 'exploiting' so-called vulnerable workers (who is to say these people, or others in their position in the future, will necessarily be hired once the agency can't engage in this mechanism?), could also conveniently discourage agencies from using contractors. Opposed to that? Well you must hate those itty bitty poor vulnerable workers you selfish pig.
