Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:

To ask Her Majesty's Government what support and advice they have provided (1) to chambers of commerce, and (2) trade associations, during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Since the start of the Covid-19 outbreak, my Rt. Hon. Friend the Secretary of State has held frequent calls with major business representative organisations. Other engagement includes the Secretary of State’s recent industry roundtables on Economic Recovery. The BEIS ministerial team continues to use these opportunities to assure the effectiveness of Government’s responses to the COVID-19 outbreak and to ensure a safe return to work across the whole UK economy as quickly as possible.
