6 Meaning of various terms about caravan park agreements (1) An agreement is a caravan park agreement if the agreement is: (a) a caravan park site agreement; or (b) a caravan and park site agreement. (2) A caravan park site agreement is an agreement under which an operator grants another person, for valuable consideration, a right (that may, but need not, be an exclusive right) of occupancy of a caravan site in the operator's caravan park, for the purpose of placing a caravan on the caravan site, for residential purposes. (3) Despite subsection (2), if a caravan is not placed on a caravan site in accordance with the agreement but a tent is erected on the site, on the day the tent is erected, the agreement stops being a caravan park site agreement and Parts 2 to 17 do not apply to it. (4) A caravan and park site agreement means an agreement under which an operator grants another person, for valuable consideration, a right (that may, but need not, be an exclusive right) of occupancy of both of the following for residential purposes: (a) a site in the caravan park; (b) a caravan made available on the site by the operator. (5) For this Act, the address for a caravan, or a caravan site, in a caravan park is the park's address unless the caravan park agreement otherwise provides an address for the caravan or site. (6) To avoid doubt, if a provision of this Act states that a term is a term of each caravan park agreement, the provision has effect whether the agreement is in writing or not.
