Big businesses can afford to have someone on payroll who just handles TFES applications day in, day out. For small businesses you can't do that, so most of the money paid out under the scheme currently goes to the big producers. Of Tasmania's 130-odd registered exporting businesses, five receive one-third of the TFES reimbursement. Without reform, won't your 25 per cent increase just go to the big players and not help out the little guys?
