Order

The Tribunal has no jurisdiction. The application is dismissed.

Reasons

Both parties attended the hearing by phone. I heard from each separately as there is a non-contact order in place.
The parties were briefly in a relationship. Both their names were on the tenancy agreement. The [former tenant]’s name has been removed from the tenancy agreement; the [tenant] is the sole tenant.
The [former tenant] wants the bond paid to him as he paid it when he was a tenant.
The bond remains with the Bond Centre.
The [tenant] said she does not have the funds to pay the bond to him.
The bond attaches to the tenancy. It is for the landlord’s security for costs at the end of the tenancy.
The [former tenant] will not be liable for any end of tenancy costs since he is no longer a tenant.
The dispute about the bond is a dispute as between tenants, not a landlord tenant dispute.
The Tenancy Tribunal only hears disputes between landlords and tenants.
To have the [tenant] pay the amount the [former tenant] paid for the bond, he will need to bring a claim against her in the Disputes Tribunal.
The [former tenant] should be assured that he correctly applied to this Tribunal first. Without this order, the Disputes Tribunal might have declined jurisdiction.
I have suppressed the names and identifying details of both parties given the sensitive nature of other matters between them.
