The Australian federal government is preparing to expand its financial support measures for New South Wales (NSW) as COVID-19 cases in Sydney reached over 100 today.
Prime Minister Scott Morrison and Treasurer Josh Frydenberg discussed how to broaden the federal government’s financial assistance with their NSW counterparts in a call over the weekend after small businesses in Sydney go back to providing limited services without the safety net of JobKeeper that was available during the previous lockdown in NSW.
