The Tasmanian Parliament has passed the Residential Parks Bill 2026, introducing protections for long-term residents of caravan and residential parks. Minister for Small Business, Trade and Consumer Affairs Guy Barnett said the legislation establishes clear tenancy rights and responsibilities, fair eviction processes, safe living conditions, and accessible dispute resolution. The reforms were shaped by the advocacy of Beauty Point residents, who campaigned for greater security and certainty.
