What happened
The Landlord applied for an order to determine whether the Residential Tenancies Act, 2006 applies to the tenancy agreement between the parties. The Landlord asserted the Act exempts the tenancy while the Tenant took the position that the Act applies.
The ruling
The Residential Tenancies Act, 2006 does not apply to the tenancy agreement between the Landlord and Tenant. The Tenant was required to share the kitchen and bathroom facilities with the Landlord, who lived on-site, which exempts the tenancy from the Act.
