Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, if he will extend the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme until at least 12 months after the final covid-19 lockdown is eased.
The Chancellor has always been clear that the Government would keep the situation under review, adapting its approach as the context evolved. The Government will set out its future economic plans, including next steps on the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme, at the Budget.
