Govt to decide bushfire relief packages on 'business-by-business' basis | Sky News Australia

On Monday, Prime Minister Scott Morrison announced small businesses in disaster zones would be offered grants, concessional loans and tax relief under a suite of new measures.

Small Business Minister Michaelia Cash said the measures were aimed at those who were under-insured but the government was eager to discourage business owners from bypassing insurance all together. Mr Strong said assessors would be making decisions on a "business-by-business" basis. “So if I’ve insured my business for $50,000 and I should have insured it for $100,000, do we support someone who really needs to be a better business operator?” he said.

tax the oil, coal, and gas industries. tax them properly! no concessions, no subsidies!! so for this tax year make it so!! there'll be heaps of money. also we have a fiat currency, the government can literally print as much money as it wants to cover the bushfires.
