Heineken pub arm Star Pubs & Bars has announced it is continuing its 90% rent reduction for lessees and tenants for January.
The pubco said it would also continue to keep rent concessions under constant review and will depend on any Government policy alterations.
It estimated the latest round of rent reduction means Star has invested more than £44m since the first national lockdown last March.
Star managing director Lawson Mountstevens said: “The Prime Minister needs to help pubs weather the months ahead by working with our sector on a roadmap to recovery.
Unnecessary and damaging
He added: “While the grants announced this week are welcome, their impact is temporary and limited. Pubs need an extension of the business rates holiday and a cut in VAT to survive the coming months.
