answer text <p>The Government considers the rents paid by tenants of commercial property to be an individual commercial decision between the landlord and tenant. We do not currently have any plans to intervene in such decisions so as not to restrict growth, distort the market or cause other unintended impacts.

The Government is considering this recommendation and will publish our response to the Select Committee in due course.</p> more like this
