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

Ok. 6% cut in rates for IT, 6% cut in legal aid rates, and now I find the employers NI allowance holiday is not for me as Im raking in an obscene £25ph in the public sector. Looks like someone has a plan.

Wish they would use the term 'rate cut' rather than 'pay cut'.......

Or 'vicious cull'....

Presumably as a result of the article in the CUK newsletter.
