Meeting March 22 2016

[swatts]

I'm guessing we'll carry on code reviewing my project.....unless

Anyone coming back from CLA summit in Austin has something to share.

or

Anyone needs to trial some of their presentations for the e-CLA summit.

Subjects for quickfire rounds will be gratefully accepted (keep them vague)

Agenda (Under Construction)

Legal Stuff with Bernie Payne

Gregs wife has kindly volunteered to talk to us about the following

•         Upcoming changes in legislation – travel and subsistence expenses and dividend taxation and how this will affect contractors/freelancers and businesses that engage with contractors
•         Future changes in legislation - what’s coming down the line (and potential effects on contractors and companies)
•         Contracts – common clauses, what they mean in practice and what clauses you shouldn’t agree to! (this will be applicable to companies and contractors alike)

Books, courses, websites, vague thoughts, well researched techniques - 3 slides + Intro

[GregPayne]

Great, thanks Steve.

I'll check with Bernie (my wife) to see if that day is ok to talk about the changes happening in April for ltd companies etc, if you still keen?

[swatts]

yup!,

On a similar note I'm trying to rustle up a legal person to talk contracts at us.

[GregPayne]

If you don't get someone, Bernie is a lawyer so she knows contracts backwards.

[GregPayne]

Hi Steve.

Just spoken to Bernie and she said she can make it and can also talk about contracts if you want.

[swatts]

Sweet!

[NickRH]

Hi Steve & Greg,

Hope all is going well!?

You`ve got me curious now with all this talk of contracts and legal people .... am I missing something ?

Cheers,

[Sash]
