The Tasmanian government has released draft legislation that would give residents of caravan parks rights similar to renters. Tasmania is currently the only Australian jurisdiction that doesn't regulate the residential use of caravan park.
00:00The proposed law changes would spell out the rights and responsibilities of caravan park owners and residents.
00:08The Tasmanian government committed to regulating the industry in June, following a series of issues at the Beauty Point Tourist Park north of Launceston.
00:16Early last year, the local council said the park wasn't approved for residential use, despite people having lived there for decades.
00:24Since then, numerous residents have been issued with eviction notices, which some have been fighting in the Supreme Court.
00:31Currently, there are no specific laws they can rely on to protect them.
00:35The draft legislation would ban no grounds evictions for long term residents and make it clear that residents are allowed to sell their homes on site.
00:43Rent increases would be limited to once every 12 months, which is the same as for renters under the Residential Tenancy Act.
00:50The Tasmanian Civil and Administrative Tribunal would be able to hear disputes on matters including evictions, rent increases and park rules.
00:58Caravan park advocates have so far welcomed the proposed law changes, but say the government should have acted sooner.
