Tied Pubs (Scotland) Act 2021 Explanatory Notes

Restriction on enforcing certain terms of agreement

65.Paragraph 3 requires the code to include a prohibition on the enforcement of certain contract terms (set out in sub-paragraph (2)) and allows the code to identify other terms which pub-owning businesses will be prohibited from enforcing. This relates to section 7 of the Act which states that any contract terms between pub-owning businesses and their tied tenants are not enforceable if they are prohibited in the code.
