In HMRC v Professional Game Match Officials [2021] EWCA Civ1370, the Court of Appeal concluded that the First Tier Tribunal (FTT) and Upper Tribunal (UT) had both erred in law when considering the control and mutuality tests in deciding whether football referees were employees. It refused to decide the employment status of the referees and instead remitted the case back to the FTT.

All change in the world of tax this week as the Treasury reverts back to holding two Budgets in a year, and the Prime Minister announces election-manifesto-breaking tax rises.

Earlier this week, the prime minister announced a 1.25% rise in National Insurance Contributions (NICs) and dividend tax from 6 April 2022. As the dust on these announcements settles, it becomes clear that the tax rises are wider-reaching measures than they first appeared.  

The prime minister has announced tax rises to fund the costs of Social Care and the NHS. Breaking two election pledges, the government's paper, 'Build Back Better: Our Plan for Health and Social Care', reveals plans to raise the rates of both National Insurance Contributions (NICs) and Dividend tax by 1.25% from 6 April 2022.
