Reasons

The applicant attended the hearing by video link. The respondent did not attend or answer telephone contact attempts.
The applicant seeks rent arrears, water rates arrears, and termination of the tenancy.
Post-hearing, the applicant provided rent and water records showing the amounts owing. I am satisfied those records are accurate.
Rent was more than 21 days in arrears at the time the application was filed, and the tenancy is therefore terminated pursuant to section 55 of the Residential Tenancies Act 1986. Applicant behaviour:
During the hearing, the applicant was dismissive of the Tribunal’s enquiries regarding the documentary and oral evidence.
The Tenancy Tribunal is a judicial forum established by the Residential Tenancies Act. Whilst remote video hearings may appear less formal than in-person hearings at the court, and are often conducted in that way for the comfort of the parties, basic decorum is still expected in online hearings, particularly from professionals. Burden of proof:
It is the responsibility of the applicant to ensure the evidence necessary to establish their burden of proof is provided at the hearing.
The applicant did not initially provide the requisite evidence, and it would have been entirely appropriate, and in fact the default approach, to dismiss the application on the basis that the burden of proof had not been satisfied.
However, such an approach would penalise the property owner for the actions of their agent. I have therefore decided not to take that course and instead provided the applicant additional time to provide the evidence to the Tribunal. The filing fee:
Because the applicant has been successful, I award the filing fee. Suppression:
The request for suppression is declined due to the conduct of the applicant which weights the consideration in favour of the public interest in publication of the outcome. See section 95A(1) of the Residential Tenancies Act 1986.
