Summary
Small business was looking to last night's federal budget for more help to alleviate pressures on the sector - which have mounted since the conflict in the middle east. Supply chains have been significantly disrupted or become more costly since February, adding to low confidence across the sector about long-term sustainability. The Council of Small Business Organisations Australia says the Treasurer has delivered a mixed bag for the sector. While the Instant Asset Write-Off becoming permanent from July 1 has been welcomed, COSBOA wants extensive consultation before changes to Capital Gains Tax and the taxation of trusts are introduced to Parliament. Guest: Skye Cappuccio, COSBOA's Chief Executive
