DPM Heng Swee Keat announced in the Fortitude Budget a cash grant to help offset the rental costs for SME tenants.

The grant which will cost about S$2 billion, will be disbursed automatically to property owners from end-July.

The Minister for Law will also introduce a new Bill next week that will mandate that landlords contribute by granting a rental waiver to SME tenants who have suffered a significant revenue drop in the past few months.
