Order

The Tribunal orders suppression of all names and identifying details.
[The tenant/s] must pay [The landlord/s] $3,120.00.
The tenant must pay the debt in order [2] at the rate of $30.00 per week.
The first payment must be made on Thursday 29 January 2026 and payments must continue every Thursday thereafter until the debt is paid in full.
If the tenant fails to make any payment within 5 working days of the due date, the balance of the debt owing will be payable immediately and can be enforced through the District Court.

Reasons

Both parties attended the hearing, conducted via teleconference.
This is a current tenancy that continues.
After some discussion, the parties agreed to settle this landlord application by the tenant paying the landlord $3,120.00.
They also agreed at the hearing on the time payments terms for that debt, as reflected in this order.
Section 95A RTA states regarding suppression orders that the Tribunal must, on the application of a party that has wholly or substantially succeeded in proceedings, order that the party’s name or identifying particulars not be published, unless the Tribunal considers that publication is in the public interest or is justified because of the party’s conduct or any other circumstances of the case.
Further, 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order that all or part of the evidence given or the name or any identifying particulars of any witness or party not be published.
Given this matter was essentially resolved by mutual consent, I accept the related submissions and order suppression. In this instance, I am satisfied the parties interests are greater than any possible public interest.
