Occupancy dispute complaints—ACAT jurisdiction
53U Occupancy dispute complaints—ACAT jurisdiction
The ACAT has the same jurisdiction in relation to an occupancy dispute complaint referred to the ACAT under this division as that provided for in the Residential Tenancies Act 1997, section 76 (Jurisdiction of ACAT under this Act etc).
To remove any doubt, the Residential Tenancies Act 1997, section 73 (2) does not require a party to an occupancy agreement to attempt to resolve a dispute under a university dispute resolution procedure before the ACAT deals with a complaint referred to it under this division.
In this section:
university dispute resolution procedure—see the Residential Tenancies Act 1997, section 73 (3).
