Kāinga Ora in New Zealand implements stricter rent debt policy to halve $16.1M owed by tenants.

New Zealand's state housing provider, Kāinga Ora, is introducing a tougher policy on rent debt to reduce the current $16.1 million owed by about half. The policy limits rent debt to 12 weeks and takes firmer action against tenants who miss payments or refuse to cooperate, while supporting those making efforts to pay. The new measures aim to recover remaining debts faster and prevent current tenants from accumulating excessive debt.
