    it will be challenged in the European Court of Human Rights (apparently it goes against our human rights)

      Re:Re: PBR

      From the Pre-Budget report

      Avoidance of tax on remuneration
      5.89 The Government is taking action in this Pre-Budget Report to remove the ability to avoid Pay As You Earn (PAYE) and national insurance contributions (NICs) liability on certain remuneration arrangements. This follows action by the Government in recent years against a variety of schemes, particularly ones designed to avoid tax and NICs on bonuses received by higher paid employees. To prevent exploitation of similar loopholes, the Government has also announced in a statement issued alongside the Pre-Budget Report
      that it is prepared to bring forward legislation to counter any schemes of this type which are developed in the future. If necessary, such legislation would be effective from today
      .
      So even if they get future legislation wrong they're still right. What's next - umbrella companies?

        My understanding is that any existing arrangement was probably ok, as long as it wasn't advertised anymore...EBT based schemes taking on new people was a no-no?? Kinsella look like they are actively advertising their scheme.

            Consulting Overseas don't use an EBT structure. I've posted here before asking if anyone is using them, but no answer. The returns are good and I'm told is backed by Qdos insurance. However, if the scheme went tits up I wonder how good this will be.

              Re:EBTs

              Quote from the Revenue's 2004 Annual Report
              National Insurance Avoidance – We have set up a National Avoidance Unit that will co-ordinate how we tackle a large number of NICs avoidance schemes. Specifically we are tackling around 13,000 schemes that rely upon exotic assets or trusts to avoid NICs
              So the Revenue are targetting EBTs or anything that avoids NIC.

                Perhaps if the government made NIC workable there wouldnt be so many farken schemes to get out of paying this extra tax.

                  This government gets more and more ridciulous every day. My pal has a Ltd. company in Canada - the government there doesn't chase him around for his pension and EI contributions.
                  At least we know whose backs all this family money is going to come from.

                  And this is "supposed" to be the easiest place to run a business in europe? No wonder the American's kick everybodies asses.
