3. New $60 million funding for Regional Business Partner Programme


On Friday 22nd October the Government announced an economic support package to support businesses affected by higher alert levels as the country transitions to the new COVID-19 Protection Framework.

Up to $3,000 worth of advice and planning support, and up to $4,000 to implement that advice. $10 million for mental health and wellbeing support through a programme that is to be designed.
