19. The 55:45 landlord: tenant split is further adjusted to take account of risk and to remove rates to avoid double counting payments. The impact of this tenant's share (45%) is effectively increased by a further 10% to reflect risk resulting in 49.5% and the landlord's share is correspondingly reduced to 50.5%. Once adjustment is that the 45 per cent figure changes made to deduct non-domestic rates payments these percentages are effectively reduced to 39.81 per cent.% for the tenant and 60.19% for the landlord.
