In December we kicked off a series of emails discussing the proposed reforms to the Residential Tenancies Act. Today we are talking about PETS. This amendment was viewed as controversial and certainly attracted a high level of debate and opinion.
The Residential Tenancies Act (RTA) in Victoria has been under review since 2015, with amendments to the Act being passed in October 2018.
There are over 138 amendments to the Act, the largest change since its inception. The date for introduction is during 2020 but popular opinion is some changes will be introduced during 2019.
