Who on earth is awarding such an important piece of research to two bob organisation like that? Central government procurement

And I'm sure that as part of their research they have spoken to members of the IR35 forum to collect evidence about the impact on the public sector

Research is being completed by a tulip paying zero hour agency... https://www.glassdoor.co.uk/Reviews/...ws-E618794.htm

It's that.

Posted on LinkedIn earlier (credit to the finder who I shan't name but if you're here, nice one) here's the award of research:

"Therefore the government will carefully consult on how to tackle non-compliance in the private sector, drawing on the experience of the public sector reforms, including through external research already commissioned by the government and due to be published in 2018"

That could be read as you have (ie "we've already done research into private sector impact and we'll publish it next year") or it could be read as "part of the experience of public sector reforms will be examined through external research that we have already commissioned and that research will be published next year".

It's that.

I suspect they are planning to merge it with the Taylor report findings, which now are backed up by two House of Parliament Committees, to get it through.

It is far easier to write a complicated bit of tax code that involves all sorts of workers making it difficult for people like us to complain. After all if that delivery driver is now an employee, it is easier to make a higher skilled worker pay tax like an employee as it is only fair.

Seems to suggest that research on extending IR35 to the private sector has already been commissioned and will be reported next year.
