Furlough pay

Hi, my normal pay includes a basic pay plus a bonus on the amount and speed at which I work. In 36 years in the same employment I dont think I have ever only had a basic pay. Am I entitled to my furlough pay to include my bonus also, or just my basic pay?

The grant paid to your employer will be calculated based on your regular, contractual pay, such as wages, compulsory commission and past overtime. The calculation will not include discretionary commission (including tips) payments or bonuses, non-cash payments or benefits in kind.
Emphasis added - so, depending on what your contract says, probably yes.1
