Lincolnshire branch of the FSB wants more detail following Chancellor's statement.

The Lincolnshire federation of small businesses are calling for more clarification on what a 'viable job' is and how costs will be calculated.

Many local firms in the Stamford and Rutland area have given the measures a cautious welcome.

However some feel more could have been done.

It comes after the Chancellor announced the new job support and pay as you grow scheme yesterday which aims to keep people in work, and not make redundancies.
