The NSW Government established the Office of the NSW Small Business Commissioner in 2011.
The role of the Office of the Small Business Commissioner is to support the sustainability of small businesses in NSW by:
• acting as an advocate where a small business has been dealt with unfairly and speaking up for them within government;
• providing information, strategic and procedural advice,
• confidential mediation and dispute resolution services;
• reaching out to regional small businesses through the Regional Activation Program, which is engaging regional communities
• to activate small business opportunities through specialised programs, assistance and tools;
• supporting small business operators from culturally diverse backgrounds by translating information into a number of languages and by offering multicultural business advisors to provide one-on-one assistance to Arabic, Vietnamese, Chinese and Korean-speaking small business owners;
• engaging local councils through the Small Business Friendly Councils program, an Australian first, which encourages and empowers local councils to work proactively with small business communities across NSW.
