Small Business Advocacy

Small Business Commissioner

The NSW Government established the Office of the NSW Small Business Commissioner to help small businesses across NSW.

The Office of the NSW Small Business Commissioner was created by the NSW Government as an independent and strong voice for small businesses within government.

It offers access to support at every stage of the business cycle, from start-up to succession planning and every step in between, including straightening out complex matters that could leave small business operators feeling isolated.

They help small businesses raise issues where you may think that government agencies, local councils or other businesses have acted unfairly.

For example, the Small biz bus is an initiative that comes to regional areas and small businesses can make free appointments for advice and planning.

For more information on the small business commissioner please visit: Small Business Commissioner

You can use the links below to:

  • Contact the Small Business Commissioner to let them know about unfair treatment or red tape
  • Read some of the submissions they’ve made to government about small business issues
  • Find out more about our recent assistance.
