  • Restructuring – the latest developments surrounding tenant restructuring and its impact on landlords, including an update on the landlords' opposition to the Virgin Active plan to use the new cross-class cram-down provisions to reduce its rental payments
  • Break notices – an overview of Wigan Borough Council v Scullindale Global Ltd regarding the validity of a landlord's break notice where a developer failed to complete a development on time
