British companies informed of energy bill delays; sources suggest
Businesses have been advised that they may have to wait longer for the energy package than households.
According to sources, this comes despite?delays?in implementing the ￡150 billion plan. Fixed energy contracts end in October, causing alarm among company leaders. The Financial Times reports that the rescue package may not be ready until November.
This week, an emergency budget is anticipated to reveal further details on tax relief for millions of households.
Pubs and breweries warn that any delay would force more firms to shut down, resulting in job losses. Ministers and bureaucrats are allegedly attempting to devise a system for limiting the energy prices of companies. Liz Truss has been urged by her own party to lay out her economic policies as soon as possible.
UK economy rebounds from downturn slowly
As an additional public holiday in June slowed the UK economy, industrial output and construction shrank.
The 0.2% growth followed a 0.6% fall in June when Queen Elizabeth II's jubilee caused an additional day off; the predicted increase was 0.3%.
Nomura and Deutsche Bank analysts say the queen's death and today's holiday might throw the country into recession this quarter.
Consumers and companies are battling growing inflation and energy bills, despite prime minister Liz Truss's program to freeze natural gas and electricity rates.
What increase there was in July was led by the technology and communications industry and consumer-facing services, which rose 0.6%.
Both industrial output and construction?declined?in July 2022 by 0.3% and 0.8%, respectively, indicating the second consecutive drop for both sectors.
The forecast for the remainder of the third quarter seems dismal, with important purchasing-management statistics indicating a contraction in private-sector output in August. A summer of stagnation was already predicted, but the queen's death means the economy may now contract for the second quarter in a row.
