Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, if he will review the eligibility criteria of the 12-month business rates holiday scheme to include the flexible workspace sector.
The Government has provided enhanced support to the retail, hospitality and leisure sectors through business rates relief given the direct and acute impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on those sectors.
A range of measures to support all businesses, including those not eligible for business rates relief such as flexible workspaces, have also been made available.
