A look back: clearing records, letting fees, tropical retirement

From The House , 7:35 am on 8 April 2018

Bills to expunge historical homosexual convictions, ban letting fee charges to tenants, and change superannuation requirements have advanced through the House. 

The House passed the Criminal Records (Expungement of Convictions for Historical Homosexual Offences) Bill which allows people to apply for historical homosexual convictions to be wiped from their records. 

A bill banning letting fees from being passed on to tenants has passed its first reading as well as a bill allowing people to meet part of the requirements for superannuation in the Cook Islands, Niue, and Tokelau.
