Even if they remain silent, that doesn't prevent HMRC from assuming that the arrangement is a sham because there was no unfettered right of substitution in the contract.
"<My company> and <my company staff> shall serve solely as independent contractor’s performing services for Client, and not as employees, partners, representatives or joint ventures of Client."
Anyway, I get the point. I'll check with an expert. End of.
As for my original question expenses, sounds like its at best, a "maybe" situation with some risk but ultimately the consensus seems to be to worry about other more pressing things for now. Thanks to everyone(with maybe one exception) for your help! I know, as with all advice, it is just advice but it does make things a little clearer now before I go to an accountant.Last edited by buddy99; 11 June 2015, 16:11.Comment

That's why the contract and working practices review by an expert are important.Comment
