Reasons

Only the applicant’s counsel attended the hearing.

Skelsey Limited, through its counsel Mr Skeates, has applied for possession of the premises pursuant to section 65 of the Residential Tenancies Act 1986.

Section 65 of the Residential Tenancies Act 1986 (‘the Act’) provides as follows: Where, on the application of any person entitled to possession of any residential premises, the Tribunal is satisfied that any other person is in possession of the premises as a squatter or trespasser, or otherwise than pursuant to any right of occupation granted to that person by any person having lawful authority to grant that right to that other person, the Tribunal shall make a possession order granting possession of the premises to the applicant.

Skelsey Limited proved that it is entitled to possession to the premises by virtue of being the registered proprietor of the property.

The onus then fall on the respondent to establish that she has a right of occupation that has been granted to her by a person having lawful authority to grant that right.

There was no appearance by the respondent who is presently in occupation of the premises.

There is nothing before the Tribunal which establishes any right, be it legal or equitable, for the respondent’s occupation at the property.

The respondent has not established that she has any right of occupation granted to her by any person having lawful authority to grant that right to that other person, the Tribunal shall make a possession order granting possession of the premises to the applicant.

By notice dated 6 March 2024, Skelsey Limited, as the registered proprietor of the property, has given notice to the respondent to vacate the premises immediately. The respondent has not complied with the applicant’s notice served by its solicitor.

Under section 65(3) RTA, the Tenancy Tribunal has jurisdiction to grant a possession order notwithstanding the absence of a residential tenancy agreement between the parties.

Accordingly, the application for possession by Skelsey Limited pursuant to section 65 of the Act is allowed.
