As more big firms opt for management comapnies such as ResourceSolutions, this is been driven firmly down. Often its below 3% for people who've been on site 18+ months.
The worst thing about RS (guess which side I'm on!) is that they advise on rate reductions. As they are often working with your competitors too, they can effectively advise that a 10% hair cut is OK because OtherBank just did a n% cut.

Recruiters for contractors in the UK generally take 20%, i've caught agencies try to take more.

It's gradually getting managed down, I believe, due to Preferred Sipplier Lists etc.
