<p>The Government has no plans to publish local data on the costs of the Coronavirus
Job Retention Scheme. This is because HM Revenue and Customs do not have complete
data for the value of claims by area.</p><p> </p><p>Claims are made by employers in
respect of their PAYE schemes and the scheme addresses tend to reflect business headquarters
and payroll office locations (where these differ) rather than where employees live
or work. Using scheme level data would potentially give a misleading picture. In addition,
for claims for fewer than 100 employees HMRC do not collect the amount claimed for
each employment, so the data at employment level is incomplete.</p><p> </p><p>For
these reasons, the cost of the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme in Harlow is unavailable.</p><p>
