So these are the 2 Public sector (soon to be private sector) IR35 questions?

Point 2 is exactly my situation. I the last few roles I have been brought in to fill a skill set the organisation didn't have. There was no one else on site who had a clue how to do the work or who could even have reviewed what I did, never mind tell me how I should do it.

This should almost be the crucial part of IR35 - if there's nobody in that project space that *can* tell you how to do it, then surely that means they cannot tell you how to do it. But should it be as simple as specialist vs generic? Obviously HMG want us all inside to get the max tax revenue but they'll miss out on so much more as stuff simply gets offshored or put to consultancies who have tax-efficient structures in place to reduce their tax outlay. Our tax as contractors plus the periphery earners - accountants, etc. - far outweighs getting rid of us or converting to permiedom.
