This was introduced in 2018 to target the enablers. But it doesn't seem to have put cojak out of a job.

Yes, my hatred burns as brightly as it ever did.

That hasn't worked..

Clearly not.

They need to make it unlawful, with jail time and/or swingeing penalties, to remunerate workers with anything less than 100% PAYE.

Probably not unless legislation is changed to make it so. Currently it’s up to punters to make sure they don’t fall foul of the rules.

Mark Aylwin Turner has control or significant influence over all of the payment companies.

Surely Mark Aylwin Turner needs his collar felt for aiding/enabling tax evasion does he not?

[eek]

Do you know if all the schemes you have been listing here are contractor ones? I'm guessing there must be some non-contractor ones out there.

Unbelievable that so many new ones keep popping up. Clearly there must still be a demand despite it being well known that nothing works.

There is still a whole world of dodgy agencies (in sectors such as healthcare) using dodgy umbrellas to undercut the rates legitimate agencies need to charge to workers.

Add workers who don’t know what’s going on and need work - (possibly a few more pence per pound) and you can see the issue

The most recent additions and updates to the list of named tax avoidance schemes, promoters, enablers and suppliers in section 3 below were published on 13 November 2025.

New additions:

• IFL Management Limited
• Manthon Solutions Limited
• Alpha Pay limited (Based in Isle of Man)
• Datamatics HR & Consultancy Ltd

IFL play 'Hunt the penny':

Individuals provide services to end clients as self-employed contractors who utilise IFL Management Limited’s umbrella services. IFL Management Limited receives money from end clients or agencies. After IFL Management Limited deduct their fee, the funds are passed down to either Tarbet Ltd or Jupiter Online Ltd, or both of them, who then facilitate payments to one or more of, Tarbet Ltd, Payroll (UK) Limited, Talmine Contracts Ltd, Milton Contracts Ltd, Bocaddon Limited, or Iceni Trading Ltd (the ‘Payment Companies’). One of the Payment Companies’ part-pays the contractors for the work carried out. These payments are reported on the contractors’ self-assessment tax returns. The contractors then receive a second amount from one of the Payment Companies which is described as a ‘self-employed workers loan’. The second payment is not declared on the self-assessment return and neither Income Tax or National Insurance contributions is remitted to HMRC.

And I love it when HMRC names individuals:

Mark Aylwin Turner has control or significant influence over all of the payment companies.
