What is it with Holiday Pay and agencies?

I have worked in temporary recruitment for over ten years and still today I hear horror stories about recruitment consultancies not passing on to their temporary staff their full holiday entitlement? Why does this still happen? Are recruiters still scamming their candidates, unfortunately this does appear to be the case which is really bizarre as recruiters would never dream of trying "to hide or steel" anyone's National Insurance contribution or perhaps more relevantly trying not to pay their own consultants holiday pay. Under recent changes in legislation all temporary workers are now entitled to 28 days holiday and your agency should set the money aside until you are ready to take that holiday...it doesn't cost anyone anything its your money and has already been accounted for and paid for by the client you are working for.  

SO TAKE YOUR HOLIDAY AND ENJOY YOUR CASH! DON'T STAND FOR ANY EXCUSES AND DON'T ACCEPT THAT ITS "INCLUDED IN YOUR RATE" OR ANY OF THE OTHER VAGUE EXCUSES AGENCIES COME OUT WITH
