Extend the 10 k grant to all registered companies before they fail

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Extend the 10 k grant to all registered companies while there is still chance to save them.
2 million Registered company's are the back bone of Britain and 990,000 are employers and pay there fare share of money to the HMRC. If the government does not act now, job losses will be certain
The scheme set up for Rate-able companies is flawed it lets company's like shops and takeaways who are fully open for normal business to claim but companies with out property who's businesses have stalled get nothing.
Also the government is not providing grants equally for companies in the same industry which is against competition rules set out in there. Government Functional Standard for General Grants
Guidance publication section 5

Extend the 10 k grant to all registered companies
