Reminds me of rent-controlled housing (in San Francisco). Once you're in, you have to do (i.e. pay) a lot less than the going rate, locking up spots indefinitely.

Real (not estimated) figures for 2011 and for 2012 & 2013 would be shocking (there have been a lot of firings of non-permanent workers).
