The latest guidance can be found on gov.uk:<a href="https://www.gov.uk/guidance/working-safely-during-coronavirus-covid-19/offices-and-contact-centres" target="_blank"> https://www.gov.uk/guidance/working-safely-during-coronavirus-covid-19/offices-and-contact-centres</a>. Cabinet Office stands ready to support companies with any questions or assist with difficulties regarding the guidance.</p><p>The Cabinet Office has issued <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/procurement-policy-note-0220-supplier-relief-due-to-covid-19" target="_blank">Procurement Policy Note 02/20</a> to provide guidance for suppliers. This outlines the approach that contracting authorities should adopt. In the Cabinet Office this has meant continuing to guarantee payments to service providers when delivery is impacted by Covid-19 resource shortages and paying employees that are absent due to presentation of Covid-19 symptoms or the need to be shielded or self-isolated.</p> answering member constituency Norwich North answering member printed Chloe Smith question first answered 15/06/2020 12:03:54 answering member 1609 label Biography information for Chloe Smith
