In response to the Covid-19 pandemic, we have so far announced £2.3 billion of additional funding for the Welsh Government in 2020-21 to support people, businesses and public services in Wales.

This is in addition to the UK-wide measures that the people and businesses in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland will benefit from, such as the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme, the Coronavirus Business Interruption Loan Scheme and the Bounce Back Loan Scheme.
