Hi,
what small businesses (and home businesses) need is lower taxation and less red tape: something that was promissed but which has not materialised.
Enterprise Nation states that statistics show that many home businesses get along fine and contribute much to the economy already despite not being online – so why set up an organisation to encourage these businesses to spend money getting online?
How much is this organisation (Enterprise Nation) costing the tax payer?
