Labor’s budget gives small business the opportunity to ‘plan ahead’: Prime Minister

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese says the Labor government’s budget’s $3.5 billion small business package gives them the chance to plan ahead. “In addition to that, in the budget we announced $3.5 billion in new measures that lower taxes for new businesses to encourage investment and innovation for infrastructure,” Mr Albanese said during Question Time on Tuesday. “In the budget we announced $3.5 billion in support of small business, and they don’t want to hear about it. They want to write it off as if it didn’t happen because it doesn’t fit the rhetoric of the three right wing parties and their allies. “It gives small business the opportunity to plan ahead, to plan their investments and how they are going to grow.”
