question text	To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, whether the conditions attached to the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme prevent companies from (a) treating the period during which staff are furloughed as a notice period prior to redundancy and (b) substituting pay for furloughed staff as redundancy pay; and if he will make a statement.

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 08/06/2020 answer text <p>An individual’s pay during their redundancy notice period is based on their rights under their contract of employment and the statutory right to notice pay.</p><p> </p><p>Employees who are dismissed due to redundancy and who satisfy certain qualifying conditions are also statutorily entitled to a lump sum from their employer, based on their age, length of service and contractual weekly earnings, subject to a statutory upper limit.</p><p> </p><p>While individual’s redundancy rights will depend on their contractual terms and statutory protections, the Coronavirus Job Retention scheme does not prevent an individual who is using the scheme from being placed on redundancy notice. During this difficult period, we urge employers to exercise discretion and not use the Job Retention Scheme to make someone redundant on less favourable terms than they would otherwise have received.</p><p><strong> </strong></p> answering member constituency Sutton and Cheam answering member printed Paul Scully question first answered 08/06/2020 14:05:34 answering member 4414 label Biography information for Paul Scully

tabling member constituency	Ilford North
tabling member printed	Wes Streeting
uin	41125
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 11/05/2020 answer text <p>Haberdasheries have been asked to close along with many other retail premises to minimise the risk of the spread of the coronavirus. It is positive to see a public desire to volunteer to help in the response to the virus and it is vital that all frontline staff get the personal protective equipment (PPE) they need.</p><p>At all times we have been consistently guided by scientific advice to protect lives. The current advice from SAGE is that relaxing business closures measures too quickly could risk damage to public health, our economy, and the sacrifices we have all made. The government has set up five tests that must be met before the lockdown measures (including the closure of certain retail businesses) can be lifted. These consider NHS capacity, death rates, transmission rates, availability of PPE, and avoidance of a second peak of the virus.</p><p>In the meantime, online retail is still open and encouraged and postal and delivery service will continue to run. This could enable the activities of haberdasheries to continue.</p> answering member constituency Tamworth answering member printed Christopher Pincher question first answered 11/05/2020 13:58:17 answering member 4075 label Biography information for Christopher Pincher
