Text

I thank the Minister for her answer. I welcome the research and the review of small business rate relief, but it will take time for them to reach their conclusion, and, for some, it will be too little, too late. What further assurances can the Minister provide to business owners in my constituency who have had to lay off staff, and what support can be provided? Will the Minister accept my recent invitation to meet members of the hospitality sector in my constituency?
