<p>It would be challenging to target the CJRS to specific sectors in a fair and deliverable
way, and it may not be the case that this is the most effective or sensible way to
provide longer term support for those sectors most affected by coronavirus. It would
also be difficult to target the CJRS at specific sectors without creating distortion,
particularly as some firms work across multiple sectors. Specific firms may benefit
from other measures, including the Small Business Grant Fund and the Coronavirus Business
Interruption Loan Scheme. It is the case that some firms will be affected by coronavirus
for longer than others and the Government will continue to keep the situation under
review.</p>
