TheCoronavirus Act 2020gives the government powers to take the right action to respond effectively to the progress of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, for example by making it easier for people to receive their Statutory Sick Pay.
These powers are temporary and designed to be switched on when necessary, and off when no longer needed.
The act requires ministers to report every 2 months on which powers are currently active.
