  • Rt Hon Rishi Sunak MP Chancellor of the Exchequer HM Treasury 1 Horse Guards Road London SW1A 2HQ
    Rt Hon Rishi Sunak MP Chancellor of the Exchequer HM Treasury 1 Horse Guards Road London SW1A 2HQ Dear Chancellor, Budget Measures to Support Hospitality and Tourism We are writing today as members and supporters of the All-Party Parliamentary Group for Hospitality and Tourism ahead of the Budget on 3rd March. As you will of course be aware, hospitality and tourism are vital to the UK’s economy along with the livelihoods and wellbeing of millions of people across the UK. The pandemic has amplified this, with its impacts illustrating the pan-UK nature of these sectors, the economic benefits they generate, and the wider social and wellbeing benefits that they provide. The role that these sectors play in terms of boosting local, civic pride in all our constituencies, and the strong sense of community that they foster, should not be underestimated. It is well-established that people relate to their local town centres, high streets and community hubs, of which the hospitality and tourism sectors are an essential part. The latest figures from 2020 highlight the significant impact that the virus has had on these industries. In 2020, the hospitality sector has seen a sales drop of 53.8%, equating to a loss in revenue of £72 billion. This decline has impacted the UK’s national economy by taking off around 2 percentage points from total GDP. For hospitality, this downturn is already estimated to be over 10 times worse than the impact of the financial crisis. It is estimated that employment in the sector has dropped by over 1 million jobs.

  • Urgent Open Letter to the Chancellor Calling for a Delay to the Loan
    Urgent Open Letter to The Chancellor of the Exchequer calling for an immediate delay to the Loan Charge from 30th September 2020 to 31st January 2021 18th September 2020 Dear Chancellor, We are writing to implore you to delay the date for reporting the Loan Charge and concluding settlement agreements from 30th September 2020 to 31st January 2021. This is essential, to allow all those who wish to do so adequate time to settle and also due to the unforeseen impacts of the Covid-19 crisis. To date the response has talked about the previous change of date resulting from the Morse Review. However, that decision was made before the Covid-19 crisis. A further delay is now imperative as the pandemic has led to a situation where HMRC cannot properly conclude settlements by the specified deadline. The pandemic has also led to a change in financial circumstances for many, with some people losing their income or jobs and many small businesses being affected. It is clear from the evidence that HMRC simply cannot conclude settlements by 30th September, with them admitting there are 6000 cases in this position. Every taxpayer engaged in the settlement process has the right to have their settlement fully and properly conducted before being hit by the Loan Charge. It is clear from many cases being shared, that pre-Loan Charge settlements are not possible in the current timeframe and people are being pressured to sign a contract with unreasonable terms and interest charges, as well as penalties which vary from case to case and have not been explained Without a further delay, through no fault of their own, people will be denied the opportunity to settle in a reasonable timescale or potentially at all.
