Download or read book Freedom to Freelance Beginning the fight against IR35 written by Philip Ross and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2012-07-03 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: History of start of the fight against IR35. (Based on the second edition and parts 1-3 of Freedom to Freelance) Part 1 - Forming the PCG -the original formation of the PCG following the announcement of IR35 Part 2 - The Parliamentary Battle - the initial Parliamentary battle in both the House of Commons and the House of Lords Part 3 - Judicial Review - how we raised the money and took the Government to the High Court for a judicial review hearing over IR35 It is not the full story you need to read all eight parts for that. It has proved hard to find any division, but this is the clearest place to divide it as it was the first phase in the development of the PCG when the movement was very much united and I think it is the part that interests people the most. Parts 4 - 8 (in the next edition) deal with what followed after the judicial review hearing and I think are even more interesting and that edition follows this one.

Download or read book Off Payroll Arrangements in the Public Sector written by Great Britain: Parliament: House of Commons: Committee of Public Accounts and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2012-10-05 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In May 2012 HM Treasury published its report on the use of off-payroll arrangements in central government ("Review of the tax arrangements of public sector appointees", Cm. 8350, ISBN 9780101835022). This showed that over 2,400 staff, each earning more than £58,200 a year, were being paid 'off-payroll' - a practice which generates suspicions of complicity in tax avoidance and which fails to meet the standards expected of public officials. The review's recommendations should go some way to reducing the prevalence of the practice, yet the scope of the review was limited in scope to central government and did not cover other public services, like Local Government, the NHS and the BBC. Some doubts about the Treasury's proposals remain. The Review stated that off-payroll arrangements can be used in 'exceptional circumstances' but does not clarify what these exceptional circumstances are. It also recommended that departments seek assurance that those staff who remain off-payroll are paying the appropriate amount of tax, but did not specify how departments could or should do this. Ultimately, whether those paid off-payroll are paying the right amount of tax is dependent on HM Revenue & Customs properly enforcing tax rules to ensure employees pay tax as employees. However, HM Revenue & Customs has progressively reduced its enforcement of the legislation designed to eliminate the avoidance of tax and National Insurance Contributions through the use of intermediaries, such as personal service companies, putting at risk any deterrent effect the rules might have on tax avoidance

It advocates restoring basic human values back to ordinary people, away from the `I'm doing you a favour' private pro-bono benefaction and/or cash-starved governmental institutions that seem to know the cost of everything, but the value of nothing.
