Bid to end rent eviction without cause

Posted on: Fri 18 Sep 2020

Renters experience anxiety and uncertainty when it comes to keeping a roof over their heads.

Under current laws in South Australia, landlords are able to evict renters without reason, creating stress, especially for families with school-age children.

Greens MLC Mark Parnell has introduced a Bill to amend the Residential Tenancies Act to State Parliament, with the aim to improve the lives of the 28.5% of South Australians who live in rental accommodation.

Mark Parnell MLC speaks with Breakfast’s Tom Mann and Zoe Kounadis about the legislation and its potential impact on renters across South Australia.
