Ask a Minister a Question About Coronavirus
The Government is inviting people to ask questions about Coronavirus. What makes it a particularly interesting opportunity is that the government will not be involved in choosing questions – this will be done by an independent polling organisation - and the minister answering the questions will not see the questions in advance.
All Secure Standard
ESSA and its stakeholders, is to provide a framework of support and assessments to ensure a safe return to live events. All work has been approved by UK government. The guidance sets out to achieve common standards of health, safety and operational planning, management and on-site conduct for the events industry.
