    Thanks so much, Jimmy. I’m so confused about so many things:

    1. what do you mean, the model by-laws will apply by default? If so, what’s the point in adopting the model by-law in the first place?
    2. strata laws on nuisance / expensive legal action – what do you mean? I can take my neighbour to NCAT for smoke drift under s153 for nuisance/hazard?
    3. moderate conditions that could see them prevented from smoking anywhere in the building, including their own homes – does this mean that if, in the future, smoking is outlawed in strata buildings, they will have nothing to fall back on?
    4. Am I allowed to circulate a leaflet to all residents by putting it in their letterboxes? I am the secretary of the EC.

    Could you recommend a good strata lawyer whose brain I can pick for a fee? I am in Sydney.
