Accountant says it's fine. Also read up on Arctic systems case - if going by this case, I could make her shareholder of the existing company by gifting her shares, but I am not interested in that, as she might start working soon again, and earn considerably.
The plan of the SPV is longer term investments for the family (even my wife my contribute into the SPV down the line) - the idea is not to channel money through the new SPV, even though if going by the Arctic systems case this could be ok too.Comment

There have been numerous discussions here on this subject in the past. I have written in some detail about what you can do and how. So I'm not going to write it up again - you can use the Search function in Accounting & Legal.
You will need a good accountant and expect to pay a couple of grand or so for the corporate structure to be set up. It's all above board and legal: you can't get £ out of any of the companies without paying either income tax, div tax or CGT. You can however use your IT Co funds to invest in other ventures/assets this way.Comment

Change the SIC codes of both companies.
Turn OriginalTradingCo into NewSPVCo and the funds are already in place. Appoint MrsMC as a Director and gift her 50% shareholding.
Turn OriginalSPVCo into NewTradingCo and run all future contracts through that.
30 minutes online to Companies House and Robert's your Dad's Brother.
Simples.
You're welcome.Comment

This might be possible/legal. Can't see anything wrong with this because funds are still owned by the Co and you will have to still pay tax to extract them.
b) Turn OriginalSPVCo into NewTradingCo and run all future contracts through that.
I do not think this is possible because by doing (a) you are pretty much phoenixing.Comment

Somebody loses out when phoenixing happens. In this instance nobody would lose anything.Comment
