Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, if he will extend Government financial support for (a) English Language Teaching centres and (b) other seasonal industries after the covid-10 lockdown has ended.
This question was answered on 19th May 2020
The government is making sure that people and businesses have access to the support they need as quickly as possible. The English language teaching sector and other seasonal industries can apply for additional support through the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme (CJRS) and the Coronavirus Business Interruption Loan Scheme where they meet the criteria for these schemes. On 12 May, the Government announced that the CJRS will continue to the end of October. The Chancellor has been clear that getting people back to work will be introduced in a measured way, avoiding a cliff edge.
