Not sure where this discussion about SDC is coming from. Sure, "supervision" is an element of control in the existing IR35 test, but only one element, and D&C is only one element of IR35. Without knowing the details of the review, it's difficult to comment, but this is one reason you need a reviewer that really knows their stuff (because less competent reviewers may have a tendency to be too risk averse). Again, I'm not passing comment on this particular review, just the discussion that has followed here. You need to separate IR35 and SDC in your minds, at least for now.

So going back to the OP post...
It does seem highly questionable why its failed the review on that one point ? I would be going back to them for further clarification on the reasoning.Comment

If you can bring a contractor into to do a piece of work then you can substitute them. A piece of work in this instance is one task. The task should take a maximum of two days."You’re just a bad memory who doesn’t know when to go away" JRComment

If you read my OP you'd see that I said in practice. Can you really see a client, on go-live week say yes to 'I'm not around this week but I'm bringing my mate in'.
Task should take 2 days? I'm able to finish my tasks in 1.9 daysComment
