What’s going on with Victoria’s commercial tenancy relief?
22 December 2020
Social media was the first place that any Victorian had heard of an extension to the state’s Commercial Tenancy Relief Scheme — but also the last. A lawyer has weighed in on what the 2021 version of the scheme may look like.
In a letter to members, the Real Estate Institute of Victoria (REIV) acknowledged state minister for small business Jaala Pulford’s announcement on the weekend of 12 and 13 December that the Commercial Tenancy Relief Scheme was being extended to 28 March 2021.
REIV president Leah Calnan said “it was extremely disappointing to hear of an important change via social media”.
