egos® - IR35 detailed comment


For IR35 services see IR35 services page

Important note:

Most of the following pages were written during the period 1999-2002.  Whilst it remains substantially accurate as to the principles, we now (2008) have substantial experience of IR35 in practice.  The overall approach was clarified in particular by the case of Dragonfly in September 2008, and our article on that case is probably a good beginning to understanding the operation and impact of IR35.
