On 23rd of September 2022, the Chancellor of the Exchequer delivered his growth plan to Parliament. Here are three key aims:
1 The government intends to repeal reforms to IR35 from 6th of April 2023. After that date, end users will no longer have to carry out employment status determinations if they are engaging someone via a personal services company. The individual providing services will be responsible for assessing their employment status to determine whether or not IR35 applies. 2 Minimum service levels on public transport will help to minimise the disruption caused by industrial action. 3 Legislation to ensure that meaningful employer pay offers are put to employees is aimed at making it easier to settle industrial disputes.
