FCSA broadly welcomes the suggested simplifications to the CIS scheme.
These proposals would go some way to bring clarity and further strengthening of the scheme.
However, it is FCSA’s view that any proposals should ensure that workers are not unintentionally disadvantaged by any changes in respect of the method of engagement and that steps are taken to ensure simple access to the scheme.
The role of FCSA members is largely limited to providing payroll services for CIS workers and the “upstream” processes do not normally effect that role, therefore our comments on the proposals are limited to the touchpoints which may affect our members.
