Is it getting harder to open small businesses in Australia?

The current economic crisis has certainly made opening most types of small businesses more difficult in Australia these days. However, the government has not forgotten their value and has responded by offering financial assistance to eligible applicants. Of course, there are also private organisations that offer small businesses help. These may include banks, some charities and other altruistic associations. However, they are far fewer and more difficult to qualify for in most cases than are funds from the Australian federal or state governments, or even that of local governments, for that matter.
