Introduction

Moray Council and Highlands and Islands Enterprise, on behalf of the Moray Economic Partnership, are developing a plan for economic recovery for the region and also investigating what support the private sector needs and what the Council, and partners, can provide.

We are asking businesses to complete this survey to help inform both of these actions. By doing so the recovery strategy and any future support schemes will be better tailored to the needs of businesses.

As we feel it is important to be able to view responses by sector we are asking businesses to identify themselves in the survey which will help to provide a more accurate picture of the impacts. This will also let us compare Moray nationally. The responses of individual businesses will not be published, only the collective response from the sector.

We appreciate that you may have been asked to complete many surveys during the COVID-19 pandemic however we hope that you will share our view that to recover well from this crisis the private and public sector need to work and communicate with each other. By completing this survey the future response will have a greater private sector voice.

The survey will close on 24 July at 5pm.
