BROOKSON LEGAL IN THE MEDIA

With uncertainty over IR35 reform in the private sector stretching back to when the reform was first mooted -- early 2016, tomorrow's publication of Finance Bill 2019-20 can't come soon enough.

Royal Bank of Scotland has become the first big-name organisation thats stands to be affected by private sector IR35 reform to take a 'pro contractor' stance, ContractorUK has learnt.

The quiet Spring Statement for contractors that their advisers were expecting has been officially delivered, with a Brexit-focussed Philip Hammond making no mention of IR35.

On Tuesday, the government launched a consultation into how the off-payroll working rules should be implemented within the private sector from April 2020.
