Reaction: ‘On balance, a welcome budget’ – York-based hotel CEO

On balance, a welcome budget.

Given 5% VAT ends in Sep AND infection rates/hospitalisations/deaths, are falling faster than expected with vaccines more effective; should the Hotel reopening date be brought forward so Hotels can benefit from the 5% VAT before it ends? @UKHospKate
