Freeze rent payments for gyms, restaurants and small businesses in tier 4 and 5
Because most business owners are not going to get furloughed and they can't afford to pay the landlords who own the property where the business owners pay the rent to keep their businesses going! However during the lockdown alot of business people have lost their businesses through lockdown!
Because I think its important its not really their fault why we have a pandemic
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Decisions about suspending rent is a matter for individual landlords, not the Government or House of Commons.
The Government has announced £4.6 billion in new lockdown grants to support businesses and protect jobs: www.gov.uk/government/news/46-billion-in-new-lockdown-grants-to-support-businesses-and-protect-jobs
If you want the Government to provide additional funding to businesses affected by Covid-19 restrictions, which could be used to cover rent payments, we could accept a petition requesting this.
