HM Revenue and Customs has published draft secondary legislation for technical comment.
The draft secondary legislation relates to the reform of the off-payroll working rules, due to come into effect from 6 April 2020.
The changes will shift responsibility for operating the rules from the worker’s company to the medium and large-sized organisation they work for to improve compliance, extending the rules that already apply to the public sector.
