Dear Member

COVID-19 UPDATE – STOP PRESS

The Chancellor has this afternoon confirmed that the furlough scheme will be extended until March paying 80% of wages.  The self-employed scheme has been similarly extended.  There will be a review in January.  If economic conditions are right then employers may be asked to contribute more.  This will apply across the UK.  You can read the announcement here:

Kind regards,

John
