Koumei Summarizes rent support measures for stores, etc. New Corona April 29, 17:48
The Komeito will help the nation to maintain rental contracts and negotiate with the owners for payment grace and reductions due to the spread of the new coronavirus that has made it difficult to pay rents at stores. I have summarized the plan.
As a result, the owners of stores and other parties will not be able to cancel the contract and request the surrender so that the company whose sales have decreased due to the spread of the infection can maintain the lease contract.
In addition, the government has set up a new consultation desk to provide advice and guidance so that negotiations on deferment or reduction of rent between the owner and the business can proceed swiftly and smoothly.
In addition, if local governments provide benefits to owners who have deferred payment or businesses that are difficult to pay rent, the government is considering considering financial measures for the costs. I will.
Regarding support to businesses, on the 28th, the Liberal Democratic Party of Japan will propose a system to subsidize rents after making use of interest-free and unsecured loans at the Diet, and Prime Minister Abe is thinking of considering it. We are going to have discussions with the LDP.
