If the lease is a retail lease, it must be registered with the Small Business Commissioner, provided that the term of a lease is more than 5 years, including any renewal period.
Tenants must make their own enquiries in relation to permission from Council or other government authority with respect to the permitted use of the premises
The landlord’s conduct must not be “unconscionable” or “misleading and deceptive”. Notwithstanding the terms and conditions of a lease always has a clause to the effect that the tenant should make his or her own enquiries and should not rely on any representations made by either the landlord or the landlord’s agent with respect to the premises.
