Statistics on the use of Tenancy mediation services

Robert Whitaker made this Official Information request to Ministry of Business, Innovation & Employment

The request was successful.

From: Robert Whitaker

Dear Ministry of Business, Innovation & Employment,

Can you please provide me with me the following statistics and regarding the usage of the tenancy mediation service:

1. The total number of cases lodged in each year where mediation was offered to the parties.
2. The proportion and number of cases in each year where the parties agree to the use of mediation (i.e. a booked mediation session is attended by both parties).
3. The proportion and number of cases in each year where the case is resolved at the mediation stage and therefore does not progress to the tribunal (including any information about how that determination is made by the service).
4. Item 1, 2 and 3 broken down by whether the mediation offered is face-to-face or telephone.
4. Item 1, 2, 3 and 4 broken down by whether the case was initiated by the landlord or tenant.
5. Any reviews, assessments or reports that address the mediation service's usage and/or effectiveness.

Thank you.

Yours faithfully,

Robert Whitaker
