If we want to make an overall assessment of the implementation of measures given in the Small Business Act in the Czech Republic for the period of 2012 and the first trimester of 2013, unfortunately, we have to say that the practical support to entrepreneurship and small and medium-sized enterprises is not what it should be. On the part of the public administration it often consists only in measures with a proclamation character without significant positive impacts. Support to SMEs is mainly focused only onto education, innovation, investment and development, but on the other hand the support for exports is low, support for entrepreneurs (tradesmen) is almost none (they can’t practically draw subsidies, bear the greatest impact of administrative burdens, fundamental and frequent changes in legislation, especially taxes). The reason for the overall poor level of implementation is the fact that SBA is not a legislation act, so that various public bodies don't pay appropriate attention to the implementation of the content. To be more precise bellow we tried to briefly evaluate each of ten points included in the SBA separately.
