CIPP Payroll: need to know 2020-21

CIPP Survey - Tackling abuse within the Construction Industry - Final reminder 7 July 2020

A final reminder to readers that the survey in relation to HMRC's consultation on tackling abuse within the construction industry is live and will be closing on 17 July 2020.

Do you operate CIS suffered via your payroll? If so, are you aware of the changes that will be implemented from April 2021?

From 6 April 2021, HMRC will have the power to amend an Employer Payment Summery (EPS) whereby they believe the deductions for CIS suffered are false or incorrect.

The survey asks your opinion on how this would affect you, including the timescales and evidence required posed by HMRC.

A virtual roundtable, hosted by the CIPP’s Policy and Research team and attended by CIPP members as well as representatives from HMRC, discussed the key topics surrounding the change, including the timeframe proposed to make corrections and the details over how sub-contractors would be advised of suspected false/incorrect submitting information.

The results of this survey and feedback from the roundtable will feed into the CIPP’s formal response to HMRC’s consultation on Tackling Abuse within the Construction industry.

The CIPP’s Carer’s Leave Survey is now live 8 July 2020

The Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy (BEIS) has launched a consultation which considers the potential of providing unpaid carers with a new right to a week of unpaid leave in which to provide care. The CIPP’s Policy & Research team has created a survey which asks for the views of you – the payroll professionals, in order to feed into our written response. The survey will take approximately 14 minutes to complete and will close at 23:45 on 24 July 2020. We appreciate that, now, more than ever, payroll professionals are extremely busy individuals but if you could spare the time to complete the survey, this is the perfect opportunity for you to have your say.

The survey asks for feedback and opinions on the proposal to give employees a week of unpaid leave each year in order to provide care, and the consultation aims to understand:

How carers use existing employment rights Who should be eligible to take the leave

• • •

What the leave can be taken for

• How the leave would be available to take and the process behind taking the leave • The costs and benefits to both employers and employees

Don’t delay, and respond to the survey today.
