      I am due to be on ABC radio in Canberra tomorrow morning talking about smoke drift from unit balconies.  Does anyone know if any resident in the ACT has taken a case to the Tribunal? If so, how did they go?

        I am not aware of any Tribunal decisions on smoke drift. I just did a search with just ‘smoke’ as the search term and only found two decisions that were to do with damage to property by smoking tenants.

            I am sorry for the delay in responding, and have missed your deadline. However, there are now two cases in NSW that have been decided by NCAT over the last 12 months that limit cigarette smoke drift on Multi Housing Balconies:

            They are:

            Pittman v Newport [2022] NSWCATCD

            And

            Again, sorry for the delay.
