Businesses and workers in line for $84bn coronavirus relief package

Businesses and workers will be in line for $84 billion in financial relief to help them stay afloat during the coronavirus pandemic. The government's multi-billion dollar COVID-19 support package passed a skeleton parliament on Monday night with a broad suite of new measures. The federal government also included students in its package, with 230,000 students on youth allowance also in line for a coronavirus supplement payment of $550. Meanwhile, businesses hardest hit by the COVID-19 fallout will be eligible for grants of up to $100,000. The government is expected to work together with the states and territories to cushion the blow for home and office renters with laws which would prohibit them from being kicked out during the pandemic.
