Answer
It was a pleasure meeting my honourable friend in April to discuss challenges facing small businesses in Truro and Falmouth.
Our Plan for Small Businesses puts high streets at the heart of economic renewal. We are reforming licensing, tackling retail crime and money laundering, and simplifying business support through the Business Growth Service.
We are also working with businesses on an MHCLG-led High Streets Strategy to revitalise communities alongside the Pride in Place programme.
