What constitutes a living wage?
The campaigners for a Living Wage say that it is £7.05 per hour, and claim that the Olympic Delivery Authority (ODA) have reneged on a deal with the London Citizens Alliance to offer that rate (or the equivalent) during the London Olympics 2012.
ODA claim that it has stood by the deal in which it promised to encourage contractors to pay a living wage.
The ODA agreement said:
"We recognise the contribution that the London living wage can play in enabling us to deliver our regenerative aspirations.
We will monitor whether this is delivered."
The campaigners for a "living wage" will stage a protest outside of the London Chamber of Commerce in the City.
