Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme

The Government has updated its guidance on the operation of the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme (the Scheme). This follows the publishing of formal directions from the Treasury to HMRC on the operation of the Scheme on 15 April 2020.

This advice note is kept under review but does not constitute legal advice and is only up-to-date at the time of publishing. As the Scheme is subject to change, you should take specific legal advice before relying on its contents.

While great care has been taken in the preparation of the content of this article, it does not purport to be a comprehensive statement of the relevant law and full professional advice should be taken before any action is taken in reliance on any item covered.
