I believe you need a majority in Parliament to call one. Even then, the government doesn’t have to act on its findings. Strata owners and residents are about 10 percent of the population and, to be honest, the other 90 percent doesn’t care about our trials and tribulations.
When the governments in Victoria, Queensland and NSW started looking at short-term letting, they were obsessed with party houses, even though that is a tiny part of the problem.
You could turn an apartment block into an hotel for all they cared, but turn one house in a street into a noisy, raucus, venue for drunkeness and debauchery, and they come down like a ton of bricks.
There will be no Royal Commission into strata managers any time soon, nor need there be. Strata owners just need to get educated and organised and weed the baddies out by sacking them. Simple as that.
