The Coronavirus Act 2020: What it covers, and what it doesn't

EG's deputy legal & professional editor, Jess Harrold, asks Bryan Johnston, UK head of real estate litigation at Dentons, and his fellow partner at the firm, Richard Budge, what the Coronavirus Act 2020 means for property - and whether it goes far enough to address major issues of concern to the industry arising out of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Johnston and Budge address how the moratorium on forfeiture will work in practice, what problems may arise, and what other ways coronavirus may necessitate further changes for real estate - and possible further legislation.
