Small businesses are vital to the economy and this Government is supporting people to start up a business in a number of ways.<\/p>

<\/p>

The website www.greatbusiness.gov.uk<\/a> provides general support and advice for entrepreneurs starting out; specific support available in Northern Ireland is available at www.investni.com<\/a> . We recognise that a key issue for many start-ups is accessing affordable finance. The British Business Bank recently published \u201cThe Business Finance Guide: A Journey from Start-Up to Growth<\/em>\u201d which is available on the British Business Bank Website. It is a unique guide that sets out the main things to consider and outlines sources of finance available to businesses \u2013 ranging from start-ups to growing businesses.<\/p>

<\/p>

The Government is rebuilding, rebalancing and growing the economy to ensure that all university leavers in all parts of the country are given the opportunity to achieve their potential.<\/p>

The economic plan is working, with over two million more private sector jobs and 400,000 more businesses.<\/p>

To enable students to take advantage of these opportunities we are increasing the information available to them through the Key Information Set. This provides comparable information on over 37,000 undergraduate courses at universities and colleges across the country.<\/p>

Our Graduate Talent Pool programme has played a valuable role in stimulating the UK graduate internship market, helping graduates to gain relevant work experience and improving their employment prospects.<\/p>
