Rent arrears

Order

The tenancy of [The tenant/s] at [Tenancy address suppressed] is terminated, and possession is granted to Kāinga Ora–Homes And Communities, at 11.59 pm on Wednesday 20 November 2024.
[The tenant/s] must pay Kāinga Ora–Homes And Communities $2,016.00 immediately, calculated as shown in the table below:

Reasons

The landlord attended the hearing which was held by teleconference on 6 November 2024. When the Tribunal attempted to contact the tenant using the provided contact number, a social worker answered the call on the tenant's behalf, but the tenant herself was not present.
Given that the Tribunal had made adequate efforts to notify the tenant and I was satisfied that the tenant was aware of the hearing but had chosen not to attend, I considered it reasonable to proceed with the hearing in the tenant's absence.
The landlord has applied for termination of the tenancy and rent arrears.
Rent was at least 21 days in arrears on the date the application was filed. The tenancy is terminated. See section 55(1)(a) Residential Tenancies Act 1986 (“RTA”).
The landlord provided rent records which prove the amount owing.
While the tenancy has been terminated due to the tenant's significant rent arrears, the landlord may be willing to reconsider the termination if the tenant contacts them at her earliest convenience to discuss a possible resolution or way forward. Suppression order
Section 95A(4) RTA provides that 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of the parties and to the public interest, order that the name of any identifying particulars of any witness or party not be published.
The landlord has requested an order for suppression of the tenant’s name given the sensitive nature of her personal circumstances. It is appropriate to grant suppression to maintain privacy. Such public interest as there may be in this case does not, in my view, outweigh these factors. I have made a suppression order in favour of the tenant.
