Freelance work

Published: 04 July 2008   

The Professional Contractors Group (PCG), which represents freelancers in the UK has backed a paper from the Law Commission over HM Revenue & Customs practices.

The paper argues that the duty of care between individuals and public bodies has developed, “in a haphazard and complicated fashion,” and that, “the current system is plainly unsatisfactory.”

John Brazier, managing director at PCG, said: “PCG will be pushing hard to ensure that this process ends with an effective mechanism for holding HMRC and other public bodies to account, so that innocent citizens can be properly compensated for any harm that is done to them by incompetent or aggressive action.”
