*“It is really struggling but it has been told it is not eligible for the latest round of grants because it has received previous grants and the recovery grant.*

*“This is a real problem for our night-time economy and for many businesses. Can the minister confirm to me that any night-time economy or hospitality sector is eligible for the latest round of grants that the minister has released?”*

In response, business minister **Paul Scully** MP said nightclubs are eligible for the £100 million discretionary grants via councils.
