53U Occupancy dispute complaints—ACAT jurisdiction
(1) The ACAT has the same jurisdiction in relation to an occupancy
dispute complaint referred to the ACAT under this division as that
provided for in the Residential Tenancies Act 1997, section 76
(Jurisdiction of ACAT under this Act etc).
(2) To remove any doubt, the Residential Tenancies Act 1997,
section 73 (2) does not require a party to an occupancy agreement to
attempt to resolve a dispute under a university dispute resolution
procedure before the ACAT deals with a complaint referred to it
under this division.

Tenancies Act 1997, section 73 (3).
