Public sector seem to be coping with it from what I've heard. Just been chatting with a contractor who was in an outside IR35 role before his current gig. PRivate sector should be able to fix itself quicker than public you'd hope.

The world changes and I'll adapt or leave if needed. But don't tell me there's nothing unfair about this.Last edited by ciaozio; 3 January 2020, 13:09.Comment

As a supplier of services, it's your responsibility to find the highest paying client, fairness never comes in to it.Comment

Sorry, not sure what thread to post in, but I'm not confident about my agency.
They are talking about meeting with the client/legal, me probably being outside IR35 and them sending me an amended contract by the end of the month if the client confirms this.
Surely amendments won't count at this point as I signed the original contract.Last edited by Moomin; 8 January 2020, 07:32.Comment

Originally posted by oliverson View PostNo, and this is what really p155es me off. Talk about abusing a dominant position. So, the public sector, unable to find contractors willing to work inside IR35, magically lift the rates. I've seen contract rates usually around £ 400-450 suddenly advertised at £ 650. Who's paying for this? The taxpayer. Isn't that anti-competitive for other companies who can't pick the taxpayers pockets? Where does that leave small/medium companies? Unable to afford the contractors they need because the pubic (yes correct spelling) sector has just shafted them on rates. They came after Microsoft in the 90's and 00's for abusing their dominant market position. How come nobody is attacking the Revenue for the same?The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world that he didn't existComment
