Parliament's social services select committee has scrutinised the Residential Tenancies Amendment Bill, which brings boarding houses under the umbrella of the Residential Tenancies Act.
The committee has recommended the bill be passed. However, National, ACT and NZ First have issued a minority report opposing the legislation.
The committee said in its report tabled in Parliament today that the bill introduced statutory provision to govern long-term boarding house tenancies.
