Commenting on the move to end Plan B restrictions on Thursday January 27, Muniya Barua, Managing Director of Strategy and Policy at London First, said:
“Businesses across the capital will be pleased to see the end of Plan B.
“The impact of restrictions was so stark for many firms in the run up to Christmas and beyond, so support should continue and be extended to longer-term business rates relief and VAT reductions to help those hit hardest.
“The Prime Minister is right to urge caution – no one wants to see another return of restrictions – and it would be prudent to keep face masks on public transport to boost confidence as people return to their workplaces.”
