Small firms want more help

Small businesses say the Government must do more to help them.

The findings come from a study carried out to mark Small Business Week, which started yesterday (Monday).

The report found 74% of small firms wanted more help from the Government, while the same percentage wanted a reduction in red tape and 70% called for business taxes to be reduced. A further 32% wanted better business advice.

Competitiveness Minister Stephen Timms said the Government was looking to develop a new enterprise framework of support, aims and ambitions to be published next spring, the BBC reported.
