Coronavirus Update Wednesday 27th May


Hello everyone

Happy Wednesday – another week flashing by but it does feel as though things are at least preparing to open up.

There’s not a ton of things to report that we haven’t talked about already so I’ll keep today’s update (very) short and sweet.

The HMRC portal for Statutory Sick Pay is now open.  So, if you’ve been affected by the changes to the SSP rules because of Coronavirus we’ll be in touch with you directly to co-ordinate those claims.  If you have had SSP over the past period and you have still to let us know about it – please do get in touch.

Not much change to Scottish Government messaging at the moment when it comes to the financials.  However, yesterday saw a fair amount of information published about what businesses need to do to get back to work – and to get teams back to work too.

This is the information provided by the Scottish Government about safe workplaces:


One of the key factors of helping control the virus is going to be the Test and Protect programme being introduced.

There’s some key information in this link about how the scheme is going to work for buisnesses:


Finally, from our own point of view – we are still fully functional and now that things are beginning to return to (the new) normal could I ask you that, if you have your records ready for tax returns, you let us have them.

If you have lots of receipts and invoices let me know and I’ll get in touch about some new software that will help us all as we think about the future.

I promised short and sweet so there you go…

I’ll drop you another line on Friday.
