Really helpful ’Not a Budget’ statement from Rishi Sunak
​
-A Job Support Scheme to help those who are working shorter hours.
-The extension of grants for the self-employed.
-Pay as You Grow ‘Bounce Back’ loans to give businesses more time and flexibility to firms to repay borrowing.
-Deadlines extended on other Government- backed loans.
-A new VAT deferral scheme and VAT cuts to 5% on tourism and hospitality extended to March next year.
A huge cost downstream and this will not help everyone but it will help to keep the ship afloat.
​
Now we need to scrap plans to remove the VAT Res and ESC schemes that will hit aviation, shipping and tourism if they go ahead.
