          Probably because her company "carry out functions either wholly or mainly of a public nature"

          See: https://www.gov.uk/employment-allowa...lass-1-nics#ee
          (Excluded employers section)

          We're ok though...

          You do not carry out a function of a public nature, if you are: supplying IT services for a government department or local council
