RESIDENTIAL TENANCIES ACT 1997 - SECT 91T

    (1)     The Tribunal may make an order requiring the residential rental provider to enter into a residential rental agreement with the applicant under section 91S if satisfied that—

        (a)     the applicant could reasonably be expected to comply with the duties of a renter under a residential rental agreement to which this Act applies; and

        (b)     the applicant would be likely to suffer severe hardship if the applicant were compelled to leave the premises; and

        (c)     the hardship suffered by the applicant would be greater than any hardship that the residential rental provider would suffer if the order were made.

    (2)     The residential rental agreement must—

        (a)     be entered into before the end of the time stated in the order; and

        (b)     be on the same terms and conditions as the residential rental agreement which applied in respect of the rented premises before the order is made, subject to any changes that the Tribunal determines.
