The regulatory changes in Clauses 14 and 15 may well spell the end of some businesses that are on the tipping point of viability. Pubs Advisory Service figures show that the number of pubs in the UK has decreased by 5% in the last three years, but the average value of the properties has gone up by 36.8% per pub. We are talking about a significant bureaucratic encumbrance for many of these businesses.
