To conclude, we have traditionally seen licences used in the commercial sector for the avoidance of the accrual of tenancy rights for commercial tenants. As we have increased the rights of tenants in the residential sector, this will increasingly become an issue. I ask the RTB to do everything in its power, from an education perspective, to inform people that licences are not an appropriate format for long-term residential tenancies.
