UK’s Junior Health Minister: More support for businesses likely if the country delays reopening
|The UK Junior Health Minister Edward Argar said on Monday, the government could roll out more support measures for businesses in case of a delay to easing Britain's lockdown restrictions.
"Were he (the PM) to make an announcement that he's delaying it, I would expect him to address that issue as well at the same time," Argar said when asked if there would be extra support for businesses.
“Boris Johnson will appeal to the nation to be patient tomorrow as he announces that the June 21 easing of lockdown restrictions will be delayed by up to four weeks,” The Times reported on Sunday.
The official statement is due to be announced later today.
