Extend the Self-Employment Income Support Scheme for after May 2020
Please extend the access to further support from the Self-Employment Income Support Scheme for the Self employed. Many are still without work and have no option to work from home, these people need to be supported.
The self employed have suffered massive loss of income and business growth due to Covid19. Their access to the Self-Employment Income Support Scheme in May covers only a portion of lost income for the previous 3months and is being delivered at the end of this period. Many still cannot work and/or do not have the option to work from home, bookings and clients for many have been cancelled. Their future needs to be protected as their future after may 2020 is extremely unstable.
