Results of the public sector consultation is up

Of more concern is that the government haven't a clue of the true impact of this legislation.

The response to the consultation was overwhelmingly negative and they pressed ahead with the plans anyway.

Yes, but they only saw the headline figure and were blinded by it, clearly.

Construction workers will up sticks and move, while IT staff could well do the same or simply go perm to the highest bidder, which won't be the public sector. Or will simply go on the dole and be a burden on the state rather than an asset to it.

As I touched upon earlier, the level of ignorance from some Contractors (and indeed Agents) on Legislation that has a direct impact on their business is shocking. We are the minority here.

Don't worry we are sure to hear from them, on here, once they start being directly affected, sure as eggs be eggs

The OTS responses to the August consultation were particularly scathing.

Give it until half way through May when they run out of April's money earlier than expected.
