Reasons

[The respondent/s] attended the hearing. Calls were made to the landlord both on the cell phone and landline numbers provided. They were not answered, and they did not attend the hearing via the link provided to them.
As, the applicant did not attend the hearing at the scheduled time, request an adjournment, or notify the Tribunal the matter has settled, I advised [redacted] that I would dismiss the application. See sections 78(1)(i) and 92(1) Residential Tenancies Act 1986.
Shortly after the hearing had ended, [redacted] for the landlord was able to connect to the hearing. He had been having technical difficulties. Attempts were made at that stage to get back in contact with [The respondent/s], but he was unable to be reached.
Accordingly, I dismiss the application given the hearing was held before [redacted] attended. However, should [redacted] apply for a rehearing, that will be granted as I accept his evidence about the technical difficulties he was having.
Given the tenants have made good progress with their rent arrears, [redacted] has advised that at the outset the parties will attempt a discussion to resolve the matter, however if agreement cannot be reached, he will apply for a rehearing and the hearing will be rescheduled.
