Tenants and landlords may soon have more powers to end an agreement over methamphetamine contamination.
The Government is establishing clear standards for the amount of contamination legally allowed in rentals.
If there is meth residue levels of 15 micrograms per 100 square centimetres, the landlord must address it.
Tenancy Advisory Director Sarina Gibbon says a tenancy can be quickly ended if levels are double this - and she explained that in these cases, it is quite likely meth has been manufactured on site.
