Committee of Supply 2022 debate, Day 2: Edward Chia on fair tenancy code of conduct
Economic recovery has been uneven across different sectors and consumer-facing businesses continue to feel the "prolonged" impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Tenancy issues continue to exacerbate challenges faced by small- and medium-sized enterprises in the sector, said MP Edward Chia. Speaking in Parliament on Thursday (Mar 3), he asked for updates on the fair tenancy code of conduct issued by the Fair Tenancy Industry Committee. He asked the Government about the challenges and feedback received by the committee, potential reviews of the code and the timeline towards legislation. He also asked the Government to outline its plans to ensure that Singapore maintains its position as a competitive business hub in the global economy.
