    If the matter is about a common property repair, I can’t see anything wrong with any occupier contacting the OC directly.  All occupiers have rights under the Strata Acts.

    For tenants in NSW some information on how to do that is here (it’s a bit out of date):

    A Strata Manager might be a bit reluctant to organise repairs without getting committee approval, but IMO they shouldn’t simply reject the request because it’s from a tenant.

    As an OC chair, I’m always happy to deal directly with tenants about issues in our building.
