An application for suppression has been made in this case, and the Tribunal orders suppression of the Tenant’s name and identifying details.

By consent [The tenant/s] owes Kāinga Ora–Homes And Communities $9,993.28 (“the debt”).

By consent [The tenant/s] must pay rent and the debt as follows: a. By 199 fortnightly payments of $644.00, being $594.00 for rent and $50.00 for the debt. b. A final payment of $637.28, being $594.00 for rent and $43.28 for the debt. c. Payments will be every other Thursday, with the first payment on 05/12/2024 and continuing until 22/07/2032.

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

If the tenant fails to pay rent and rent arrears within 2 working days of the due dates: a. The tenancy at [Tenancy address suppressed] will terminate and the landlord will have immediate possession of the premises. b. The balance of the debt will be payable immediately.

Reasons

Both parties attended the hearing by telephone.

The landlord has applied for termination of the tenancy and rent arrears. The tenant wants 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. The rent assigned to the Tenants was subject to income assessment’s by Work and Income New Zealand so would increase substantially at times. The Tenants made efforts to communicate with Work and Income New Zealand and Kainga Ora to resolve the arrears. Kainga Ora also requested a conditional termination. For these reasons, I have granted a conditional termination order.

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.

The landlord has applied for rent arrears and the Tenant agrees to the amount owing up until 5 December 2024 when the Tenants will pay their next rent.

As the parties have reached agreement with respect to the rent arrears and termination, the issues are of nominal public interest and the Landlord has supported name suppression for the tenant, I have granted name suppression for the Tenant.
