answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 24/03/2020 answer text <p>A range of measures to support all businesses has been made available. These include the Coronavirus Business Interruption Loan Scheme, allowing businesses to benefit from loans of up to £5m, with the first 12 months of that finance interest free, and the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme to help keep people in employment. This scheme means businesses can put workers on temporary leave and the Government will pay cash grants of 80% of their wages up to a cap of £2,500 per month, providing they keep the worker employed. They will receive the grant from HMRC, and all UK organisations can self-certify that they have furloughed employees. The scheme will cover the cost of wages backdated to 1 March.</p> answering member constituency Hereford and South Herefordshire answering member printed Jesse Norman question first answered 24/03/2020 15:18:34 answering member 3991 label Biography information for Jesse Norman
