New prime minister Liz Truss set out the long-awaited measures on Thursday (8 September), which will see bills – from October – capped at £2,500 until 2024. Businesses, though, will only receive support for six months, subject to a review after three months.
Truss said support could be extended for "vulnerable industries"; Abta chief executive Mark Tanzer said it was now vital the government provided more detail on the review process with travel businesses heading into low season, many of whom he said were "particularly vulnerable".
