Revision to the Small Business Commissioner’s powers, following on from the consultation in 2020, will be considered after the conclusion of the current wider payment and cash flow review, and statutory review of the Small Business Commissioner (SBC). The role of the SBC will also be explored as part of the wider review. We anticipate delivery of a conclusions document in 2023.
