What options do I have if I have staff with childcare responsibilities but their job cannot be done at home?

The Act should make it easier for residents to obtain relevant information. It includes an obligation for the Principal Accountable Person to prepare a strategy for promoting the participation of residents, including the information to be provided to them and consultations about relevant decisions. The strategy must be provided to residents, and there will be provision for residents to be able to request information and copies of documents from the Principal Accountable Person. The type of information and the form in which it is to be provided will be set out in secondary legislation in due course, but the explanatory notes anticipate that it will include:

• Full current and historical fire risk assessments•Planned maintenance and repair schedules
• The outcome of building safety inspection checks
• Information on how assets in the building are managed
• Details of preventative measures
• Details of fire protection measures and the fire strategy for the building
• Information on the maintenance of fire safety systems
• Structural assessments
• Planned and historical changes to the building

• A taxable grant worth 80% of the average monthly profit over the last three years (one or two years will be reviewed for those who do not have three years of tax returns)
• The grant will be capped at £2,500 per month
• The scheme was initially available for three months and has been extended as necessary
• Individuals claiming a grant can continue to do business (unlike employees who must not work when furloughed)

Yes, but the Courts have been temporarily restructured into three categories:

1. Open courts (open for business including vital in person hearings)
2. Staffed courts (for video and telephone hearings)
3. Suspended courts (no hearings of any kind)

These changes have been effective from Monday 30 March 2020.

There should be some data collected as to the type and number of interactions MHFA are having, to ensure no one individual or individuals are overloaded. MHFAs should be encouraged to maintain regular self-care practice, to lean in to all support provisions available in their organisation, to engage in peer support, and to take a break from their role as a  MHFA to prioritise their own wellbeing as needed. It is also important that those who volunteer to be MHFAs have the support of their managers.  So they have the time to do both their core role and their MHFA duties without feeling pressurised to cram work into spare time to make up for time spent on MHFA duties.

For those with variable pay, if the employee has been employed for a full 12 months before the period claimed for you, can take the higher of:

• The same month’s earnings in the previous year; or
• Average monthly earnings from the 2019/20 tax year.

For those who have been employed for less than one year you can use the average of their monthly earnings since they began their employment until the date they were furloughed.

If they have been employed for less than a month, work out a pro rata for their earnings so far, and claim for 80%.
