Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what financial support he plans to make available to road haulage businesses which employ key workers and who are not eligible for Government Small Business Grants.

The Government has already announced a range of measures to support all businesses, including hauliers, such as the Coronavirus Business Interruption Loan Scheme, the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme and the Self-Employment Income Support Scheme. The Department for Transport is continuing to engage with the haulage industry to understand the impact of Covid-19 on the sector.
