HMRC denies IR35 reforms to blame for public sector IT project delays and cancellations

How odd - I refused to take those 2 HMRC contracts offered to me last year. One of which keeps being offered to me on a regular basis....

I recommend you talk to IPSE who may or may not assist you. But it's a start.

He better be quick cause he's heading for a ban spamming the forum with the same request.

See if you can track down any of these guys on LinkedIn. That would be fun. I'm thinking about 20 minutes through the programme:

Despite HMRC's persistent denials that the public sector is being disrupted, File on Four has learnt that HMRC has itself seen a significant outflow of IT contractors, even threatening its ability to bring in the new off-payroll rules.

And the guy that put the fund up to challenge HMRC. That should be good for a giggle.

that 40% NHS figure doesn't provide a concrete figure. is that 40% leaving contracting and returning to full time employment within the NHS or 40% quitting working for the NHS.

The former is of course what NHS Improvement are hoping for, the latter is what we suspect and NHS Improvement fear but those numbers don't answer the real question....

I think it is that they are returning into full time employment or taking fixed term contracts at a higher rate. There are far fewer temporary positions and locums about (AHP's in particular) and all of the health agencies seem to be pushing permanent job placements a lot more.
