- “NICs avoidance: employment income provided through third parties: Employer Financed Retirement Benefit Schemes – general” – archived page now reinstated.
- “NICs avoidance: treating payments as earnings: contents” – page archived – reason for archiving: content is no longer relevant as anti-avoidance procedures and legislation supersede it and are located within our specific Counter Avoidance Guidance that covers all subjects.

- “NICs avoidance: employment income provided through third parties: after employee dies” – former hyperlink restored.
