- High Court
HNZC was not required to determine the applicant's ongoing eligibility for social housing under the HR&TMA before issuing a valid s51(1)(d) 90 day termination notice under the RTA; actions under s58A and the HR&TMA appeal regime do not invalidate or modify HNZC's separate statutory power as landlord to terminate a tenancy by notice, and the Tenancy Tribunal lacked jurisdiction to convert HR&TMA review requirements into prerequisites to a s51 notice.
