A concern some of us has is, if the number of people with notices increases, the number of people overholding will increase and emergency accommodation options may become more limited. It already takes the RTB, on average, four months to deal with adjudication in an overholding case. Is there a concern that the length of decision-making could increase because the RTB itself has a challenge in staffing and processing times?
