Statutory Standards and Frequently Asked Questions
Milton Keynes does not create a special IR35 code for Data Scientist work. The client SDS should name the Milton Keynes workplace and delivery model. An inside finding on a Milton Keynes Data Scientist brief typically deducts tax at source, while outside IR35 Data Scientist work in Milton Keynes is billed by a PSC. Local pay sits on a South East rate uplift, so a higher Milton Keynes headline rate can still be inside. Commuting into Milton Keynes does not, by itself, prove substitution or lack of control.
