Reasons

Ms Wing, a director of the applicant company, represented the landlord.

The tenant did not attend the hearing. I am satisfied that proper notice of the hearing was given to the tenant. The landlord’s application.

The landlord has applied for possession of the premises following the termination of the tenancy by written notice properly given on 23 September 2025 1 .

A landlord may terminate a tenancy on 42 days’ written notice if the premises are required for occupation by employees of the landlord and the premises are customarily used for that purpose 2 .

The tenant was an employee of the landlord. His employment ended on 5 September 2025.

The landlord wants to employ another employee but cannot do so because it cannot offer the premises to another employee with the tenant still in possession. The farm is a dairy farm, and employees are commonly offered on- farm accommodation as part of their employment.

The premises are customarily used for occupation by the landlord’s employees. It was on that basis that the tenancy between the parties came into effect.

The tenancy ended on 4 November 2025, which is less than 90 days ago 3 .

I have granted the landlord immediate possession as the tenant refuses to vacate the tenancy and remains in possession. The tenant’s application

It is not clear whether the tenant challenges the landlord’s notice to terminate the tenancy. He seeks compensation and exemplary damages for alleged breaches by the landlord of its statutory responsibilities.

Because the tenant did not attend the hearing at the scheduled time, request an adjournment, or notify the Tribunal the matter has settled his application is dismissed. 1 See sections 51(3) and (4) of the Residential Tenancies Act 1986 2 See section 51(2) of the Residential Tenancies Act 1986 3 The requirements of section 64(1) of the Residential Tenancies Act 1986 are satisfied

The landlord did not seek rent arrears or reimbursement of the filing fee. There is no bond.
