HMRC update Mini Umbrella Company fraud guidance

• HMRC updated the guidance on mini umbrella company fraud on 10 August 2022 with two short sentences
• The additional content is as follows;

“These are some of the signs to look out for, although should not be taken in isolation. Most mini umbrella companies will display most, if not all, of the signs in the following sections.”

We would question why HMRC has decided to update the guidance with two short sentences.

Does this have any bearing on the validity of the previous version of the guidance?
