Jinx!

Well, as ever, you're more helpful. I decided that those with an interest can do their own home work

It was more making sure I remember the dates so I didn't miss out (as I did last time) from not applying in time. That mistake has probably cost me £180k or so - as there have been 2 contracts I would have won on it.

As A professional expert working independently - digital outcomes is only used if the expertise is not available inside the organisation and is not required on a permanent basis so it's usually (always) outside IR35.

Right. The rules for DOS explicitly state that the framework is only for outside IR35 work (although it doesn't mention IR35 explicitly, but buying organisations certainly interpret it that way). There are other frameworks for inside IR35 work. It doesn't stop some bidders (recruitment agencies, I suppose) to repeatedly ask about IR35 status, just showing they don't understand what kind of framework they signed up to.
