Thousands of dollars in toll rebates and discounted licensing fees will be offered to small businesses in Sydney as the NSW government expands its COVID-19 economic recovery program.
“We are the most tolled city on earth. And now we have a 100 per cent privately owned toll road monopoly right here in Sydney.” “We know ... one of the key issues was providing confidence as we head into the summer months. This will give businesses the confidence to acquire or to get ready for a major summer trade as the Job Saver program finishes [at the end of] November.”
Mr Perrottet indicated there were no plans to further extend Job Saver beyond December 1, because trade capacity restrictions on businesses would be removed by that date.
