Deputy Leader of NSW Liberal Party Stuart Ayres remains hopeful that the commonwealth will come in and support the recent small business financial package.

With the news being announced, the Morrison government has not flagged emergency monetary stimulus.

“I’ve always supported the idea of supporting businesses that are being impacted by restrictions that governments have imposed.”

“This is about making sure we help those businesses survive.”
