Rejected petition Require Student Accommodation to release all tenants of contracts due to Covid19
Make it mandatory for all student accommodations both private and university owned to void the final payment of student accommodation rent.
More details
All accommodation providers currently have it at their discretion whether to release/void the renaming instalments on their contracts. It should be a government decision, as this would overrule their decisions.
