Shropshire Chamber of Commerce has welcomed moves in today's Budget designed to tackle the skills shortage which it says is ‘blighting the economy’.

But the Chamber believes that concerns remain about whether enough has been done on energy bills to help the many smaller businesses across the county who are ‘fighting to survive’.

“Help on childcare costs, and extra incentives designed to entice more over-50s back into the workplace are also to be welcomed. She added: “The jury is out, though, on whether enough has been done to ease the pressure which Shropshire businesses are facing with their energy bills. “There appears to be little in this Budget statement that will provide much comfort to these businesses – apart from the predicted sharp fall in inflation later this year.”
