Charlottetown f IIS) _ The executive eduncil has‘
approved amendments to the rent act regulations which will provide greater pro- tection to tenants with respect to rent increases. Residences at UPEI are under the jurisdiction of the rent review act.
Effective February 19, landlords will be required to notify the office of the rentalsman when they enter into a new tenancy agreement for residential premises which have been occupied by a tenant for any time since October 14, 1975. A copy of the notice id to go to the tenant.
Provincial Secretary Arthur MacDonald, the min- ister responsible for the rent review act, said the regulations were amended to insure that new tenants are aware of any new rent increase invoked on their unit.
" Under these amendments the landlord must give notice of any rent increase applied to the unit since the departure of the last tenant and of the services
' provided and included in
the rent. The tenant is then in a position to ask
‘the rentalsman to rule on
the increase if it exceeds
8 percent,." said Mr. Mac- Donald.

ZNew Rent ARegulat'ions
The minister said that the forms on which appl- ications and notifications must be made have been changed so that they more fully explain the rights and responsibilities of both the tenant and the landlord. ’
" For example, the form the landlord must complete
when entering into a new tenancy agreemen t explains to the tenant that he or she has 60 days from re— ceiving the notice of an increase to require the landlord to apply to the rentalsman to justify the increase.
" Also explained is that if within 15 days of receipt of the notice from the ten- ant, the lanlerd fails to reduce the rent a mutually agreed_npon amount, or apply to the rentalsman for approval of the in- crease, the tenant may ap—‘ ply to have the increase declared null and void," said Mr. MacDonald.
The minister said that landlords who increase rents beyond the present allowable limit of 8 per— cent without receiving approval are leaving them—
’selves open to a possible
prosecution and could be libel to a fine of up to a maximum of $2000.
