Each Australian state has a support service providing guidance to retail tenants regarding your leasing rights and obligations as a commercial tenant.
What can the Small Business Commissions do for me?
The Small Business Commissions throughout Australia are an independent authority which provide advice, advocacy, and dispute resolution services:
Provide a central point of contact for small businesses to make complaints about their commercial dealings with other businesses and their dealings with government agencies
Facilitate the resolution of disputes involving small businesses through mediation and other appropriate forms of alternative dispute resolution
Encourages government agencies and larger businesses to enter into productive working relationships with small businesses
Support the fair treatment of small businesses
As an advocate for the interests of small businesses the Commission may operate a subsidised mediation service to help businesses resolve disputes quickly and efficiently.
The Commissioner works with government, industry groups and other stakeholders to reduce red tape and make it easier for small businesses to operate.
Any small business can contact their local Commission for information or assistance.
