Two companies, common shareholders/directors, different businesses (nothing to do with artificial separation etc) can they have a payroll scheme which covers both companies?
I've never heard of this, they aren't a group of companies, just merely common ownership so I can't see how it can be done, but it has been suggested it can?
Anyone come across this before?
Many thanks

One employer may operate more than one PAYE schemes (Reg 98), but I'm yet to see anything the other way.
I can't understand how two separate legal entities sharing a single page scheme will work. In terms of law how will the liabilities be shared??
If you don't mind the wait....
