200103 - bushfires Cheshunt community briefing police.

STATEMENT

September 18, 2020

I continue to press the federal government and the National Bushfire Recovery Agency to make sure people, businesses and organisations in our bushfire communities get the recovery support they need.

Nine months after the summer emergency, the Agency’s latest tally of support payments to businesses in Indi’s bushfire-affected local government areas shows why this support is vital.

If your small business was affected by bushfire, you can apply at Rural Finance Victoria until December 31 for:

  • Concessional loan up to $500,000
  • Primary producer grant up to $75,000
  • Wine grape smoke taint grant up to $10,000
  • Small business bushfire support grant of $10,00
