RP 2: PAYE intermediaries
or “Rules for using someone to handle your PAYE and ESCT duties”

You could also call this:

“Rules for PAYE tax collection helpers have been removed”

You don’t need to know about the requirements for listed PAYE intermediaries anymore. This part of the law was removed on 1 April 2020. PAYE stands for “Pay As You Earn” and is a way to collect income tax. An intermediary is someone who helps with this process. But now, the rules about these helpers are no longer part of the Income Tax Act 2007.
