Funded Activity Summary

Landlords, Tenants and Access to Justice: A Longitudinal Study of Residential Tenancies Disputes. The proposed research will compare the strikingly different justice regimes governing residential tenancy disputes over the last 3 decades in New South Wales. These regimes have ranged from the exclusively formal, or court-based, to a hybrid model (with some matters resolved by tribunals, others by the courts) and finally to an almost exclusively tribunal-governed system. This study seeks to compare the effectiveness of these various regimes in delivering justice to all parties. No such study has been conducted in Australia, and the results will provide a basis for informed decision on whether the latest model should remain the preferred one in a sector of the housing market catering for more than 25% of the population of NSW, a large proportion of whom are disadvantaged.
