Is it Reg 72(5) A or B?
for the older members of our audience it was of course Reg 42(B) and for the even older ones it was Reg 29. Doesn't time pass quickly in taxation and when you're enjoying yourself

Sorry Nichola,
I have now taken my tongue out of my cheek.....
but seriously this has always been part of the "nasty taste in the mouth" that the real culprits in all this are the "End Users" and "HMRC".
Presumably it's cheaper to go to the High Court than proceed via Regulation 80 or 72 - OK tongue firmly put back. Maybe they might even go for a windfall tax on the Oil & Energy companies or is that too political. Roll on Alex Salmond's LIT - oops sorry Local Income Tax to replace the council tax.

You too,
I have been wondering how on earth this can happen, as I suppose that the obligation of the taxing authority is to get as much tax as possible as cheaply as possible, and so...
and so...
why go to the High Court rather than engage the 'employer"?
Obviously, that would disrupt the whole of the agency market, and could even upset the balance sheets of some of our biggest companies. That's why, and this is why we have IR35.
So the clients client said "Employee"
What surprises me is that the big boys continue to get away with having employees on the cheap and without either the obligations or costs of an employer to their employee or the burdens of operating PAYE - yet they can turn round and say hey they were employees all the time.
