Applications now open for small business assistance
Applications for financial support are now open for specific businesses directly impacted by the necessary public health measures in Perth and Peel from 23 December 2021 to 4 January 2022.
The Small Business Assistance Grant December 2021 will assist small businesses and sole traders in the hospitality and events sectors that meet the eligibility criteria. Businesses must be located in the Perth and Peel region and demonstrate a reduction in turnover of at least 30 per cent compared to the same 11-day period last year.
The final payment will be based upon the number of days that a business was impacted over the period. Employing businesses may receive $1130 for each impacted day, while sole traders may receive $400 for each impacted day.
Small businesses can check their eligibility and apply online, with payments expected to commence by the end of January.
