Tenants experience of MRO procedure questionnaire

Welcome Page

The PCA would like to hear the experiences of all tied pub tenants who have reached the end of the Market Rent Only (MRO) procedure following receipt of a MRO Proposal from their pub company since the Pubs Code came into force. In particular the PCA is keen to gather tenants’ experiences of how the MRO procedure is being implemented in practice and whether tenants feel that they have a genuine choice in deciding whether staying tied or going free of tie is best for them.

Responses will be used to inform the PCA’s regulatory functions only and will not be referred for arbitration. Completing this questionnaire does not affect any existing or future right to refer any Pubs Code-related dispute to the PCA for arbitration.
