Border Closure Critical Support Program Grant Round 2 closing soon

The Tasmanian Liberal Government is continuing to provide our small business sector with strong support as we face the ongoing challenges and uncertainty of COVID-19.

Many Tasmanian small businesses continue to experience difficulties due to travel and

border restrictions, and this new round of the COVID-19 Micro and Small Business - Border Closure Critical Support Program will provide much needed support to those businesses in hardship.

Applications for round two of this grant program close on Thursday, 25 November 2021 at 2:00 pm. Those that have already applied will be notified over the coming weeks of the outcome of their application.

Under round one of this program, more than $43 million was provided to over 3,100 businesses.

I would like to encourage Tasmanian businesses to sign up to the Business Tasmania website at www.business.tas.gov.au and to contact Business Tasmania on 1800 440 026 or email ask@business.tas.gov.au for all your business enquires.
