RESIDENTIAL TENANCY DISPUTES — ENDURING
POWER OF ATTORNEY
1324. Hon MARTIN PRITCHARD to the
Attorney General:
Is there any legislation or
regulation that prevents a person using an enduring power of attorney for a residential
tenancy dispute in the Magistrates Court?

AnswerView source ↗

I thank the honourable member for
some notice of the question.
The
question requires legal research, and consistent with standing order 105,
questions shall, amongst other things, not seek an opinion or a legal
interpretation or opinion, which is precisely what is being sought in this
case.
