PCG Newsletter - 34/01 - 26th October, 2001 - AGM & Tribunals In this issue:
PCG AGM & Conference The quality of this year�s conference speakers again raised the standards and are yet another reflection of how far PCG has come. Anne Redston and Dave Smith in particular provided much encouragement and confidence to all the genuine businesses in the audience. Keynote speaker Professor Richard Scase reinforced the point that outsourcing to independent businesses is the way forward. After dinner, former MP, Gyles Brandreth managed to both shock
and amuse with his tales of Parliamentary tradition. Powerpoint
presentations used by the speakers are available to members There is now further qualification and comment from Francesca
Lagerberg, Senior Tax Consultant at Institute of Taxation and
adviser to PCG for case review strategy, available on the PCG
site This week in a separate case also involving HP, a second long-term contractor was found �not employed under a contract of employment� at a Cardiff Employment Tribunal. PCG is considering the judgments and the way forward in light
of these results. Members are invited to add their own thoughts
in the discussion boards.
