QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

Senator STERLE (Western Australia) (14:23): My question is to the Minister representing the Minister for Small Business, Senator Ayres. The Albanese Labor government is backing Australians through a range of measures designed to support Australian small businesses. Last month, the Treasurer announced more than $3.8 billion in new, practical support to boost Australian small business.

Minister, how is the government helping small business grow, create jobs and seize new opportunities?
