Rishi Sunak will ask all businesses to contribute to the JRS from 1 August by covering NI and pension contributions, rising to 10% of wages in September and 20% of wages in October. The JRS will then be closed down at the end of October. He also announced some flexibility to the scheme so employees could start to return part-time from July. He made no specific provision for the hospitality industry, which largely remains closed before it is allowed to reopen on 4 July.
