(ii)        reviewing rents in conjunction with tenants in City premises for those tenants that require support on a case-by-case basis;

(iii)      waiving standard contractual terms and return venue booking and banner fees to people and organisations who have booked City of Sydney venues and banners and may then be unable to proceed with their bookings;
