RENT REDUCTIONS. [By Telegraph, Per Press Association.V WELLINGTON, April 11. It is clear that the rent reductions proposed in the National Expenditure Adjustment Bill, does not cover the weekly house’ tenancies.
When the question was raised to-day with the Minister of Finance, lie said: “I understand that the legislation applies to all classes of tenacy, but, of course, with regard to weekly tenancies, it could hardly be effective without some further restrictive legislation, as obviously a landlord e°uld terminate a tenancy by notice, and raise the rent, whereas in the case of longer leases, he is not in a position to do this.”
