The Commercial Tenancy (COVID-19 Response) Regulations 2020 (WA)
July 22, 2020
On 23 April 2020, the Commercial Tenancy (COVID-19 Response) Act 2020 (WA) (Act) became law, as a response to many commercial tenants experiencing a sudden and sharp decrease in income due to COVID-19 restrictions. The Act imposes a number of obligations on the parties to commercial leases which are important, including the non-payment of rent, a pause on rent increases and a new dispute resolution process.
If you are a party to a commercial lease, it is important to understand how the Act may affect you. Our Commercial Team at Avon Legal has prepared this summary of the Act, for your information.
