Penny Mordaunt
Government business will be announced in the usual way, but I will ensure that the Secretary of State has heard the hon. Lady’s concerns and those of other hon. Members who have raised the matter today.
Margaret Ferrier (Rutherglen and Hamilton West) (Ind)
Following the mini Budget, the Chancellor invited me to write to him about the family-owned business in my constituency, Equi’s Ice Cream, and its exclusion from the energy support scheme. He promised a “timely” reply. Will the Leader of the House encourage her colleague to respond and demonstrate the Government’s commitment to small businesses?
Penny Mordaunt
I will certainly do that. I thank the hon. Lady for raising that matter.
