Legislation has also been laid to underpin the customs and VAT regime and two customs sites have been already designated in law in different Freeports. HMG continues to support Freeports with the delivery of their customs sites and will continue to designate customs sites as the relevant criteria are demonstrated. Maps for designated tax and customs site are available on gov.uk.

Following last year\u2019s consultation on reforms to the tax treatment of red diesel announced at Budget 2020, the Government accepted the arguments made by representatives from the sports sector that removing the entitlement to use red diesel would increase costs on amateur sports clubs, which would be passed down to members, and that this could affect people\u2019s ability to participate in sport and impact on health and well-being. The Government therefore announced at Budget 2021 that amateur sports clubs will qualify for continued use of red diesel beyond April 2022 if they are registered as community amateur sports clubs (CASCs), which are non-profit organisations that can benefit from a range or tax reliefs. There are over 7,300 clubs registered with HMRC as CASCs, and relying on this definition of an amateur sports club will aid HMRC to ensure compliance.<\/p>"}

For all eligibility decisions under CJRS, the Government must balance the need to support as many jobs as possible with the need to protect the scheme from fraud.<\/p>
<\/p>
Under the CJRS extension, an employer can claim for employees who were employed and on their PAYE payroll on 30 October 2020. The employer must have made a PAYE Real Time Information (RTI) submission to HMRC between 20 March 2020 and 30 October 2020, notifying a payment of earnings for that employee. The use of RTI allows HMRC to verify claims in the most efficient and timely way, ensuring payments can be made quickly while reducing the risk of fraud. Without the use of RTI returns it would be difficult to verify claims without significant additional checks, which would delay payment for genuine claims.<\/p>
<\/p>
The 30 October 2020 cut-off date allowed as many people as possible to be included by going right up to the day before the announcement, while balancing the risk of fraud that existed as soon as the scheme became public. Extending the cut-off date further would have significantly increased the risk of abuse because claims could not be confidently verified against the risk of fraud by using the data after this point.<\/p>"}

The Chancellor has always been clear that the Government would keep the situation under review, adapting its approach as the context evolved. The purpose of the Job Retention Bonus (JRB) was to encourage employers to keep previously furloughed staff in work until the end of January. However, as the CJRS is being extended to the end of March 2021, the policy intent of the JRB falls away. As such, the JRB will not be paid in February. The Government will instead redeploy a retention incentive at the right time.<\/p>

Treasury Ministers and officials have meetings with a wide variety of organisations in the public and private sectors, including Lloyds Bank, as part of the process of policy development and delivery. Details of ministerial and permanent secretary meetings with external organisations on departmental business are published on a quarterly basis and are available at: https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/hmt-ministers-meetings-hospitality-gifts-and-overseas-travel.<\/p>
Decisions on the branch network are a commercial matter for the management team of a firm, and the Government does not intervene in those decisions. However, the impact of closures on communities must be understood, considered and mitigated, where possible.<\/p>
Government supports the industry\u2019s Access to Banking Standard, launched in May 2017, which commits banks to ensure personal and business customers are better informed about branch closures and the reasons for them closing, along with the options they have locally to continue to access banking services. The Access to Banking Standard is monitored and enforced by the independent Lending Standards Board.<\/p>
Government also supports the Post Office\u2019s banking framework agreement which enables 99% of personal and 95% of banks\u2019 small business customers to conduct their everyday banking services at a Post Office counter via its network of 11,500 branches. In March, in response to my request, the Post Office and UK Finance committed to joint work to raise public awareness of these important services so that more consumers can benefit from them.<\/p>"}
