-----to get this money in their bank account. The Government is seeking to give people financial assistance and we are saying we will not stop there. We are going to do more around energy efficiency. We have increased the VAT threshold. We have left the gas and electricity VAT cuts in place for the time being. We are also looking at how we can provide certainty. The big thing I hear from small businesses is that they want to know what is next in terms of costs and whether there are more coming at them. I assure them that the Government will only pursue policies in the weeks and months ahead that will support small businesses and their viability.
