Responses continue to be received and this number has, and will continue to, increase up until the Call for Evidence closes on 8 June.<\/p> The Government will publish a further public consultation on the design and shape of the scheme, as soon as the time has been taken to analyse the responses to the Call for Evidence and use the information gathered to inform design and implementation considerations.<\/p>"}
