Guidance on clarity in the MRO procedure [Electronic resource] - Pubs Code Adjudicator, 17 March 2023

Pubs Code Adjudicator statutory guidance for pub companies aims to remove barriers for tenants and ensure a fair and consistent approach to the Market Rent Only (MRO) offer. The guidance has been made under the Small Business, Enterprise and Employment Act 2015 s.61(3) and seeks to reduce the potential areas for disputes over the compliance of a MRO option, and thus the need for arbitration referrals, which can be a cumbersome and costly mechanism for resolving a dispute and a disincentive to tied tenants pursuing the MRO option. The guidance will come into effect from 1 May 2023.
