Tuesday 9th March 2021 Commons Chamber

[Yasmin Qureshi (Bolton South East) (Lab)]

What assessment he has made of the potential merits of continuing support for the self-employed as covid-19 public health restrictions are lifted; and if he will make a statement.

[The Financial Secretary to the Treasury (Jesse Norman)]

The Government have announced that the self-employment income support scheme will continue until September, with a fourth and a fifth grant. This provides certainty to business as the economy reopens and it means that the self-employment income support scheme continues to be one of the most generous covid-19 support schemes for self-employment income around the world.
