Contingencies Fund Bill

Proceeding contribution from Kevin Hollinrake (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 24 March 2020. It occurred during Debate on bills on Contingencies Fund Bill.

The hon. Gentleman makes a very good point about grants. The biggest grant, of course, is the job retention scheme—that is a grant. It is Government funded, and there is no requirement for employers to pay anything towards it unless they want to do so, and they can top it up to that 20%. Therefore, will he concede that the scheme is a very important initiative by the Government and that it will be welcomed by many businesses?
