Alexander Stafford MP has thrown his support behind the Chancellor’s Summer Statement, which focusses on jobs and growth.
The Plan For Jobs includes a £1000 bonus to employers who bring employees off furlough, a kickstarter scheme to help young people into new jobs with up to £6,500 of support to employers for each new employee and a VAT cut.
The Chancellor has also announced the Eat-Out-To-Help-Out scheme, which will support pubs and restaurants across Rother Valley by giving a 50% reduction, up to £10 per head, on sit down meals and non-alcoholic drinks Monday-Wednesday.
Commenting, Alexander Stafford MP said:
The Plan For Jobs will be vital to businesses and the people of Rother Valley, providing vital support in bringing employees back from furlough, and creating new jobs for young people through the Kickstarter scheme.
The Eat-Out-To-Help-Out scheme will keep our local restaurants and pubs busy and encourage more people to support our local businesses.
