Jade Natasha Healey owes Kāinga Ora–Homes And Communities $3,490.00 (“the debt”), being rent arrears to 27 January 2025.

Jade Natasha Healey must pay rent and the debt by weekly payments of $108.00, being $88.00 for rent and $20.00 for the debt. Payments will be every Tuesday, with the first payment on 28/01/2025 and continuing until the debt is paid.

Payments will be allocated in the following order: rent and then rent arrears.

If the tenant fails to pay rent and rent arrears within 3 working days of the due dates: a. The tenancy at 44 Second Avenue, Avenues, Whangarei 0110 will terminate and the landlord will have immediate possession of the premises. b. The balance of the debt will be payable immediately.

Reasons

The landlord attended the hearing, conducted via video. The tenant did not join and a call out was made. The call went unanswered. An alternative number was provided. It was a landline to an institution. It was answered by an employee. Given the informal provision of the number, and privacy concerns, the call was discontinued.

I was satisfied adequate service had completed and I continued with the hearing.

The landlord has applied for termination of the tenancy, rent arrears and refund of the bond. The landlord wants to provide the tenant with the opportunity to repay the debt to avoid immediate termination.

Should a conditional termination order be made?

Where rent is at least 21 days in arrears on the date the application was filed, the Tribunal must make either a final or a conditional termination order. See section 55(1)(a) and (1A) Residential Tenancies Act 1986.

I am satisfied the tenant will pay the debt within the period specified in the order and is unlikely to commit any further relevant breach. I have granted a conditional termination order. The terms of this order reflect a payment structure already in place and maintained since November last year.

The conditional termination order will lapse if it is fully complied with. If the tenant breaches the order, the possession order may be enforced for 90 days from the first breach. See section 64(4)(b) Residential Tenancies Act 1986. Suppression

Section 95A RTA states regarding suppression orders that 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party that has wholly or substantially succeeded in proceedings, order that the party’s name or identifying particulars not be published, unless the Tribunal considers that publication is in the public interest or is justified because of the party’s conduct or any other circumstances of the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.

Further, the Tribunal may, on the application of any party to proceedings or on its own initiative, having regard to the interests of the parties and to the public interest, order that all or part of the evidence given or the name or any identifying particulars of any witness or party not be published.

The landlord did not request suppression in its application and no order is made. It did request tenant name suppression in what appears is a blanket approach to such applications by this landlord. The very nature of the application for termination and rent arrears orders is of public interest. The lack of tenant engagement before or at the hearing, nor any special circumstances or compelling submissions regarding reasons for such a request means it would be inappropriate to order tenant name suppression. No order is made.
