There is going to be a consultation on this with initial meetings at the end of this month but generally a 'consultation' means that something will happen albeit with alterations whereas a 'discussion' usually means they haven't made their mind up whether to do something or not.
From what I've read (the actual lines and between them) the original theories behind IR35 will apply to this new legislation - HMRC are making the distinction, with extreme and fairly unhelpful examples, between an individual brought in to complete a project because no-one in their existing workforce has the skills to undertake the role and a worker who's recruited to replace or augment existing workers. What's new is that they're relying purely on SDC to make a determination of status (presumably after their failure to make a case in Talentcore Courts aren ) and that they're considering passing tax liability if false claims are made
The fact talentcore is explicitly mentioned within the discussion document was rather enlightening...
