The IR35 Forum was established following the Government's announcement at Budget 2011 that it was committed to making clear improvements in the way IR35 is administered. This followed the publication of the Office of Tax Simplification's (OTS) review of Small Business Tax.
The role of the IR35 Forum includes providing advice on improvements in the administration of IR35, and in a transparent manner to assist HM Revenue & Customs in identifying specific areas for improvement in the administration of IR35.
The members of the Forum include taxpayer representatives and professional advisers with expert knowledge and experience of how the legislation operates in practice and how it affects key taxpayer groups.
