IR35 PS - So anyone had the discussion yet?

Hmm, will be interesting. Hope we've got forumites that are going to stay so they can give us updates on the frontline.

It's hard to see what you're typing with your head in the sand, let alone navigate the internet!

Looks like the PS that I am at is taking things seriously and actively looking at legal ways of declaring everyone outside of IR35. Most people here don't even realise they are working for a PS. They are now working with the single agent to change payment schedules to weekly so that we don't all give 2 weeks notice on 10th Feb. The latter is a positive move that will buy them more time to fix the former.

Have they explained what legal recourse they think they can use? Restraint of trade for example?

Good point well made sir.

No changing everyone's contracts so they have to deliver something every week or so.

Surely working practices would have to be changed too?

That said, if they can get a good contract/IR35 legal bod in, they'll be able to do it. PC is free in a couple of weeks I believe....

No he won't

Been told by the agency I'm through that I won't hear anything till the end of February. I think the PS client will take the TfL option, and I'm looking for a new contract.

They're cutting it fine and absolutely pooing their pants. Bad planning and bad implementation of a bad idea

Glad May and cronies have there priorities right chasing small business owners for tax.

This also happens as the governments real intentions start to come to light.

Another week head down working through the products we are taking to market. We're waiting on the final draft (30th I think) and a partner selection exercise before launching.

To remind everyone. Nothing has changed in IR35 legislation, this is about education and assurance. At our firm, those contractors who are genuinely outside will be very well supported.
