Small businesses want the Government to rethink regulations it describes as a burden.
A new report from Business NZ claims small Kiwi businesses are bogged down by compliance hurdles and complicated regulations, which it says cost time and money.
Business NZ CEO Katherine Rich told Mike Hosking politicians need to ease the burden, and not politicise it.
She says too often the debate around small business involves politicians promising to cut red tape, but she says they need to be more specific about what will actually change.
Rich says they've provided a practical shopping list of possible regulation changes that would help businesses almost immediately.
