SCC respond to easing of lockdown measures in Scotland
Responding to the First Minister’s announcement at the Scottish Government daily briefing today that from this Friday (29th of May), Scotland will be easing some lockdown measures and moving to Phase 1 of the Scottish Government’s route map for moving out of lockdown, Dr Liz Cameron, Chief Executive of the Scottish Chambers of Commerce said:
“Entering phase one of the easing of restrictions will be welcome for many but the clock for businesses is ticking. The need for firmer timelines is an increasingly urgent matter for companies across all sectors who still face significant risk if they are not able to open urgently. Preparing for a safe return to the workplace is the utmost priority for businesses and should be too for government.”
