I wouldn't describe them as a "contractor body". They're a body of accountants and umbrellas.
Unfortunately it's in the interests of brollies to push the "we're all in it together" message, and spread a bit of uncertainty.Comment

It would be good if we could get the CUK article pulled or corrected. I'll PM admin, unless someone has done that already?
I wouldn't be too surprised if this was a case of FSCA reading what they wanted to see, without thinking about it too carefully. Perhaps it was an honest mistake. Either way, it does nothing for their reputation. I've seen other umbrella companies trying to spread FUD in the hope that their clients won't switch to a Ltd company. TBH, I doubt many will, because there are other factors, but it won't help their cause to lie about the situation.Comment

Edit: I see their clarification now refers to managed PSCs (i.e. MSCs), which I concur is the correct interpretation, in my non-expert opinion.Last edited by jamesbrown; 5 April 2016, 20:15.Comment
