answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 22/02/2021 answer text <p>The eligibility criteria for the Scottish Government’s new £1,500 grant for private hire and taxi drivers is a matter for the Scottish Government not the UK government. While DWP was not consulted in advance about the eligibility criteria, it is our understanding that the grant is intended to assist with fixed costs and expenses, including license plate fees, rental fees and insurance payments for taxis not on the road. Legislation already provides that Covid-19 related grants which are intended to cover loss of business income and to aid business recovery will be disregarded for Universal Credit purposes for 12 months.</p> answering member constituency Mid Sussex answering member printed Mims Davies grouped question UIN 140113 question first answered 22/02/2021 16:40:57 answering member 4513 label Biography information for Mims Davies previous answer version 76973 answering member constituency Mid Sussex answering member printed Mims Davies answering member 4513 label Biography information for Mims Davies
