“The recent storms have had a significant impact on many communities and businesses in south east Queensland,” Mr Atkins said.  
 
“We know this is an incredibly difficult time, and help is available. We’ve put in place a range of support measures, including $1,000 disaster relief grants, loan payment deferrals and other assistance options, to help ease the pressure.”
