FULL INTERVIEW: Australian Small Business Ombudsman Kate Carnell says a business growth fund could help 'small businesses grow exponentially.' Prime Minister Scott Morrison has pledged $100 million to help small and family business, in a funding promise the party hopes will firm up votes in South Australia.
Mr Morrison told Sky News the growth fund, which was announced on Tuesday, is part of the biggest equity investment in small and family businesses ‘ever seen in government’. Ms Carnell told Sky News that if overseas equivalents are any indication, the government's strategy will 'turn a profit' and help smaller companies thrive. She says she also hopes Labor 'comes to the party' and endorse this plan.

Small business will be the victim of Shorten's penalty rates promise | Sky News AustraliaSky News host Peta Credlin says the 'main victims' of Bill Shorten's promise to reverse cuts to penalty rates 'will be small businesses and their staff'.\n\nThe Opposition Leader has vowed to reverse cuts to penalty rates within Labor's first 100 days in office if he's elected in May, as well as put in legislation to prevent the decision from being overturned. \n\nMs Credlin explains how the decisions on penalty rates are handed down by the 'independent industrial umpire', called Fair Work Australia, which was originally set up by Labor.\n\nShe is urging voters to 'beware the Labor scare campaign' on penalty rates, 'particularly when they're at odds with their own independent umpire'.\n\nImage: News Corp Australia\n\n\n\n\n The victims are the employees who have had wages cut. Businesses that open on weekends either pay properly or shut shop. Penalty rates have been paid for years and small businesses still survived. Oh, if you put a surcharge up I will walk straight out. You pay the penalties not ! My wife owned in small business several years ago, after penalty rates her two employees made more than she did. She finally put off her girls and closed the business. Small family businesses can have family work weekends and staff on weekdays. No penalty rates needed, simple solution.
