Order

Irene Kaye Abraham must pay Kāhui Tū Kaha Limited $1,198.28 immediately, as calculated in the table below:

Reasons

The landlord attended the hearing by teleconference.
The tenant was telephoned on the phone numbers provided but the phone calls went to voice mail and unanswered. I am satisfied the tenant was properly served with notice of the hearing. The hearing proceeded in her absence.
The landlord has applied for rent arrears, electricity costs and water rates.
The landlord has provided rent records, a water rates statement and invoices and electricity invoices which prove the amounts owing. The landlord confirmed at the hearing that the rent arrears had decreased from the amount claimed in the application and I have ordered the reduced amount claimed.
Because the landlord has substantially succeeded with the claim, I have reimbursed the filing fee. Suppression
The landlord requested name suppression. The landlord is a social housing provider. The relevant provisions of the Residential Tenancies Act 1986 (the “RTA”) are: 95 Proceedings usually to be in public (1) Except as provided in subsections (1A) and (2), the proceedings of the Tribunal shall be conducted in public. 95ASuppression orders (1)The Tribunal must, on the application of a party that has wholly or substantially succeeded in proceedings, order that the party’s name or identifying particulars not be published, unless the Tribunal considers that publication is in the public interest or is justified because of the party’s conduct or any other circumstances of the case.
There is a presumption under section 95 of the RTA that proceedings will be in public. By extension I consider that information concerning the hearings will be available to the public, including the parties’ identities, particularly when the landlord is a social housing provider.
I have considered the basis for landlord seeking suppression, however there are orders publicly available naming the landlord and there are no sensitive issues raised in this application. Because I consider it to be in the public interest that parties’ can be identified, I decline to grant name suppression to the landlord.
