WRC declines to hear tenant’s housing assistance discrimination complaint

By Fionn Kelly

Historic decision · Decision date:

Place: no local area assigned from the source.

The Workplace Relations Commission found it had no jurisdiction to hear Izabela Chelchowska’s complaint against 1st Class Letting & Property Management Limited about information she needed to apply for Covid-19 rent support. The decision was dated 13 December 2023; the merits were not decided. The officer found the property manager received written notice after the statutory deadline. Chelchowska said pregnancy and Covid-19 caused the delay, but the officer did not accept either as reasonable cause for extending the time limit.
