I’m looking for some clarification on s 179 (f) of the Act.
Am I correct in interpreting this as being that the name(s) of any tenants has to be included on the roll?
I am the Secretary of my EC and we are trying to ensure our records are up-to-date. We have asked for contact details of all owners, and if tenanted, the tenant’s name(s) yet our records remain sketchy. My understanding is that this is a legal requirement.
178 Content of strata roll
(1) Information about lots
The following information must be recorded in the strata roll in relation to a particular lot in the strata scheme:(a) the name of the holder of the estate in fee simple in the lot (in the case of a freehold strata scheme) or the holder of the leasehold estate in the lot (in the case of a leasehold strata scheme),
(b) an address for service of notices,
(c) an Australian postal address, and an email address if the holder has one, if not provided as the address for service,
(d) the name of the holder’s agent (if any) appointed in accordance with this Act and the agent’s address for service of notices,
(e) information provided under a strata interest notice,
(f) information provided under a tenancy notice.

I understand this to mean that your Roll should have the details of the Agency which the Lot owner tenants their property through and not necessarily the actual Tenant’s details. The Agency is often a Real Estate Agency or the Public Housing Authority etc. If the Owners corp needs to contact the tenant then they should do this via the Agency.
