Liberal Party NEC Statement - Post Pandemic Economic Recovery - ReadingLib - 04-11-2020
"The Liberal Party acknowledges the widely anticipated extension of the current national lockdown to contain the current COVID pandemic.
This necessary regime is however already causing serious long-term damage to business and livelihoods which are likely to intensify over the coming weeks and months.
Once the pandemic has subsided, an innovative and far-reaching fiscal stimulus package will be needed to help rebuild the nation’s economy and recreate jobs and prosperity.
Such an initiative needs to be funded out of a modest redistribution of wealth to support workers and families who have been left without jobs or reduced income and to help recovery in the hard-hit small business and SME sectors, whilst restricting the ability of large firms to establish dominating or monopoly positions."
