PCG lose case

The judgement has been handed down, and the PCG have lost the court case against the government to repel IR35.

This is not come as much as a surprise based on the news of the past few days. IR35Calc predicted the outcome last week.

Mr Justice Burton stated in the judgement: "With grateful thanks for the extremely full and lucid arguments and research of counsel which have formed the entirety of the bedrock for my conclusion, I dismiss this application."

Appeal was also dismissed on all counts.

However, as expected, Justice Burton has issued new directions to the Inland Revenue on the implementation of IR35. More updates very soon
