Arthur Spring (Kerry North-West Limerick, Labour)

Across the country small and medium size enterprises are procrastinating in terms of renewing leases because they are expecting legislation on upward only rent reviews. They are also wondering, if they are a year into rent reviews, whether they can retrospectively look at bringing down the lease.
