EXTRA SUPPORT FOR SMALL BUSINESS FROM 1 JULY

From today, small businesses and not-for-profits can access further support if they have experienced a decline in turnover as a result of COVID-19.

The new $3,000 Small Business Recovery Grants and payroll tax changes aim to help entrepreneurs and mum and dad owners relaunch and revitalise their businesses.

Minister for Customer Service Victor Dominello said the new Small Business Recovery Grants followed the success of the Small Business Support Fund grants.

The Small Business Recovery Grant can only be used for expenses from 1 July and where no other Government support is available. The new grants are funded from the $750 million Small Business Support Fund.

If you're after support or advice, small business owners can also seek help from more than 110 Business Connect advisors.
