The Commercial Rent (Coronavirus) Act 2022

Acting for Yellowdice Limited, the Tenant of a nightclub in London SE11, I have helped achieve its objective for the rent payable for the protected rent debt period defined by The Commercial Rent (Coronavirus) Act 2022. This Act has a short life so far as the dispute procedure is concerned. Application for arbitration had to be made between 25 March 2022 and 24 September 2022. Unusually for arbitration, which is usually private, the award is published on the accredited body’s website, in this case, the Consumer Code for Online Dispute Resolution (CCODR) - https://www.ccodr.com/crcas-awards. If you are interested in reading the award, then you may do so. Still, likely, it won’t tell you anything because, under the Act, commercially sensitive information can be excluded from the Award, as has been done in this case.
