The Economy This Year

Statistics released this week show over 9.6 million employees have been on Furlough since March

and currently there are 1.2 million Furloughed in August.

This amounts to over £34.7 billion in grants from the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme which ends in October.

The second claim for the Self-Employed Income Support Scheme is now available. The first grant was claimed by 2.7 million people amounting to £7.8 billion.
