Protecting park home residents GREATER protections for people living in park homes in Western Australia are one step clos- er after new laws were passed by State Parlia- ment. Changes to the Residential Parks (Long-stay Tenants) Act 2006 will give tenants who rent a site or a home in a residential park better clari- ty with contracts and costs as well as set new rules relating to terminations. Long-stay tenancies can involve living in a caravan, mobile home or park home located within a caravan park or lifestyle village. The changes follow extensive consultation with ten- ants, operators and the community generally. Commissioner for Consumer Protection La- nie Chopping said these extra protections are important for the members of our community who rely on residential park living as an import- ant and viable housing option. “As these residents usually own their home but only lease the land on which it sits, they are sometimes lacking protection, so I expect these new laws will give them greater con dence and security,” Ms Chopping said. “I believe the laws strike a fair balance be- tween upholding the rights of tenants and maintaining the  nancial viability of the park for operators.” Work on developing standard agreements, disclosure material and other regulations has now begun which, when completed, will see the new laws implemented.
