Dental Services: Coronavirus
- Question
-
To ask Her Majesty's Government what the evidence base was for excluding dental practices from the business rate relief support being offered during the COVID-19 pandemic; and what plans they have, if any, to extend that support to include such practices.
- Answer
-
The Government has provided enhanced support to the retail, hospitality and leisure sectors through business rates relief given the direct and acute impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on those sectors.
A range of further measures to support all businesses, including those not eligible for the business rates holiday, such as medical service providers, has also been made available.
The Government will consider any further financial assistance necessary to help businesses get through this period.
