If I am tenant B, I cannot make a complaint saying that my rent is in breach of the rent-pressure zones because I do not know what tenant A was paying. However, the RTB has that information. I imagine it would be fairly simple for its software to flag it in terms of a rent-pressure zone here. We have a tenancy where the rent has increased by 10% or 11% within the last 12 months and therefore is in breach. Is the RTB proactive on those types of matters?
