Rishi Sunak mulls support for sole directors The Chancellor is considering plans for a £3bn scheme to help a million small business owners who have been unable to claim furlough or business loans. Those who pay themselves through dividends rather than a salary could be paid up to 80% of lost profits for three months, up to a ceiling of £7,500 under the Directors Income Support Scheme.
