</p><p>The Coronavirus Business Interruption Loan Scheme (CBILS), delivered by the
British Business Bank, is now available for eligible smaller businesses including
unincorporated businesses, such as partnerships and sole traders. Decision-making
on whether a business is eligible to access CBILS will be fully delegated to the 40+
accredited lenders. The Scheme covers overdrafts, loans, asset finance, and invoice
finance. Full guidance, including eligibility criteria, will be published at: <a href="http://www.british-business-bank.co.uk/cbils"

HMRC have set up a tax helpline on 0800 0159 559 to support and advise businesses
and self-employed people concerned about missing tax commitments due to Coronavirus.
