9 September 2021 Support Payment Update

Last night the Victorian Government clarified how the lockdown support payments would apply to regional Victoria, now open but still operating under restrictions. Read the media release here.

For this coming fortnight, any business scheduled to receive these cash payments will still have those funds delivered:

Business Costs Assistance Program Round 4
Licensed Hospitality Venue Fund
Small Business COVID Hardship Fund

The Victorian Government will assess which sectors remain under severely impacted settings before making further announcements on arrangements for the two-week period from 17 September.

Further information on these grants can be found here.
