In response to the Pubs Code Adjudicator releasing details of the first arbitration awards since pub companies agreed to work to waive confidentiality, please find the below quote:
CAMRA National Director Ben Wilkinson said: "We welcome the release of this information, something CAMRA has been campaigning for since the Pubs Code was introduced, but considering the scale of concern it still represents a lacklustre Christmas present for tied pub tenants.
"We look forward to the scheduled review of the Code taking place and to seeing tenants’ experiences - some of which highlight very dubious conduct by pub operating businesses - influencing that process."
