Wherever your current contract states as your main place of work is your main place of work. I don't quite know how the tax office would view it if you're moved but not issued with a new contract.
The general slackness regarding contracts is appalling. That and the very fact that we weren't aware of these tax laws is why other professions just laugh at archaeology. How can we be expected to be taken seriously? It's not as if these rules are new, they've been around for decades and are common knowledge in other businesses.
I spoke to my tax advisor who, although they couldn't say for sure, felt that in reclaiming tax owed, for subs and accommodation etc..., hm customs and revenue were more likely to go after units than individuals, even though it is the reponsibility of the individual to declare anything they haven't been taxed on.
