STATE HOUSES
KEEPING OF BOARDERS Wellington, Aug. 28. Representations were recently made by the N.Z.R.S.A. to the State Advances Corporation with regard to granting permission to tenants in State houses, in certain circumstances, to keep boarders or share the house with friends. The association suggested in particular that the tenancy agreements might be revised to allow wives of servicemen to take in boarders to supplement their meagre income during the serviceman's absence on service. The N.Z.R.S.A. has now been advised that as a wartime concession such permission may be granted by the corporation. This does not mean that the clause in the tenancy agreement prohibiting subletting or keeping of boarders is relaxed, but that in certain cases the corporation is prepared to give consideration to an application for permission, each case being considered strictly on its merits.
