Extend the rent moratorium by 3 months, defer half of the rent owed for 2 years!
The government must extend the rent moratorium for another three months and legislate to allow tenants to repay half of the rent owed for 2 years. This will mean we can avoid mass liquidations when the moratorium ends. We need the government to #givehospitalityabreak!
The UK hospitality sector's turnover fell by £72 billion last year, equivalent to nearly £200m a day in lost sales for businesses. Operators would not have survived without the rent moratorium. Having not traded for almost a year, many will now fail if they have to pay back even half the rent they owe, when the moratorium is lifted! The government must #givehospitalityabreak, and extend the moratorium, by three months. Businesses will need up to two year years to pay off half the rent they owe!

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
We can't accept your petition because the UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for the issue you raise. The Government aren't responsible for rent payment schedules, which is a matter for those in the contract.
