Chair Padraic McElwee said: “It is welcome to see that the government will be supporting companies, and their significant challenges related to rising energy costs, and helping businesses to become more sustainable for the future.
“This will no doubt be of comfort to businesses but what we would say to any small business is to reach out to your Local Enterprise Office and see what we can do for you.
"Many businesses can avail of a range of supports that will make their companies work more efficiently, and in many cases will save them money.
“Initiatives such as the Lean, Digital and Green programmes will have a positive impact on most businesses.
"So, we would ask companies to engage with us, we can work with you on ways and means to adapt your business for the next six months and beyond.”
