	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/09/2019 answer text <p>The off-payroll working rules were introduced in 2000 and require that individuals who work like employees, but through their own company, pay similar taxes to employees. To increase compliance with the rules, from April 2020 responsibility for assessing the employment status of individuals will shift to engagers, who are better equipped to make determinations. Outside the public sector, the reform will not apply to the smallest 1.5 million organisations, minimising their administrative costs.</p><p> </p><p>On 11 July 2019 HMRC published a Tax Information and Impact Note setting out the costs to business of the reform.
