Queensland Residential Tenancies and Rooming Accommodation Act 2008 s459: s 459 List a former tenant in a tenancy database only on a prescribed reason and after review

A person lists personal information about someone in a tenancy database only where that person was a named tenant, the agreement has ended, a reason prescribed by regulation applies (Regulation 2025 Part 7: an amount owed that exceeds the bond paid, or one week's rent if none, plus any tenancy guarantee, for rent left unpaid after a notice to remedy was not complied with, under a conciliation agreement or tribunal order whose time for payment has passed, or after abandonment unless an abandonment dispute is still before the tribunal; or a tribunal termination order for objectionable behaviour under s 345 or repeated breaches under s 347) and no tribunal order forbids it; and first gives the person a free copy of the information, at least 14 days to review and object, and considers any submission (unless they cannot be found, the information is in public court or tribunal records, or it is an amendment). No one lists information they know is inaccurate, incomplete, ambiguous or out of date.

What else in your programme already covers this

This control maps to 4 controls across 2 other frameworks. If you already hold one of them, the evidence you collected for it is the starting point here rather than new work.

  • APP-10 APP 10 - Quality of personal information
  • APP-6 APP 6 - Use or disclosure of personal information
  • s212-213 ss 212 and 213 List a person only for a qualifying breach, after giving them a copy and 14 days to object
  • s213A s 213A Never list domestic abuse victims; ask the operator to remove such a listing within 7 days (as substituted 21 September 2026)

Every mapping shown was judged rather than inferred from wording similarity, and the ones that failed review are published too. See the coverage reports and what was rejected.
