Extend the Self-Employment Income Support Scheme for the travel industry

Closed 1,339 signatures

What the petition asks

Extend the SEISS scheme for self-employed travel professionals. The SEISS was designed to protect the self-employed adversely affected by coronavirus. The FCO advice remains against all but essential international travel and until this changes our businesses will be adversely affected.
The Travel Industry is facing extremely challenging times. Even after lock-down, travel advice remains against all but essential international travel. There have been exemptions to this advice but with changes to these exemptions confidence in travelling is now at an all time low! When people begin to travel again expert help and advice will be needed more than ever to protect and guide travellers in the post-Covid19 world.
