Green leases

Our Property and Estates department is currently undertaking a project relating to "greener leases" for all our commercial tenants.

The project involves reviewing green initiatives already undertaken by us for commercial tenants as well as exploring new opportunities. The project aims to develop new procedures and incentives to encourage “greener leases” without being too restrictive to existing or future commercial leaseholders.

With the current economic climate, any changes made to future leases will need to balance environmental benefits with the need to ensure leases remain competitive.
