Department for Business and Trade written question – answered at on 20 March 2024.
To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, whether she has had discussions with Boots on the potential impact of its planned store closures.
I recognise the retail sector is going through a difficult transition as it responds to market pressures from a range of factors including changing consumer expectations and behaviour towards online shopping. The Department has regular, ongoing discussions with Boots and a number of retail businesses on a range of subjects.
As you will be aware, the Government has no role in the strategic direction or management of private businesses.
