Starting a Business

Starting a new business is an exciting and challenging event.  Turning a great idea into reality is a lot of work; finding the finance, the right premises, sourcing equipment, stock and suppliers.  Making the decisions and deals that will make it happen.

One of the most important activities that new small business people must tackle is determining what laws, regulations and licences must be complied with or obtained for their new business.

Start Your Business Here is an initiative of your local council, funded by the AusIndustry that aims to assist you to identify the rules and regulations that you may need to comply with to run your business in our Local Government area.

Start Your Business Here uses a set of simple questions to determine what rules and regulations are likely to apply to your business.  Not only does it provide you with a printed list of the rules and regulations, wherever posible the program links you to a copy of the regulation or licence application.
