That way you have a couple of choices; You hire the staff directly, you pay another company that hires the staff, or you pay enough for it to be allowed.
There would obviously be some caveats that need to be worked out but it'd be well worth it to remove the ir35 mess. If you need some more flexibility, then the size of the company and the % of outsourced work comes into play.
The onus should be on big business to be regulated, they can afford to understand it, can afford to take the hit, and since theres less of them, will cost less to regulate.
On the fairness issue, get merge both ni's and income tax and raise dividends tax bands. I'd rather not be paying higher taxes, but it's preferable to dealing with this god awful tulip.
