Recommendation
We repeat our call for the Government to introduce a time-limited insurance scheme for costs incurred by live events scheduled to take place after 21 June that may have to cancel if there is a need for, or return to, continuing Covid-19 restrictions. The scheme should run until the commercial insurance market offers sufficient cover to the events industry for Covid-19 related cancellations.
Government Response Summary
The Government acknowledges challenges for touring and commits to continue working closely with creative industries and keeping them informed, but does not commit to introducing a time-limited insurance scheme for event cancellations due to Covid-19 restrictions.
