This meta evaluation synthesises evidence in relation to the effectiveness and impacts of 12 schemes launched as part of BEIS鈥� package of pandemic interventions. This includes major economic response programmes, such as the 拢23 billion local authority COVID-19 Business Support Grants Scheme and the COVID-19 Debt Guarantee Schemes.
