Sadly, today the Cairns TAAS will close it’s doors for the last time.  Their last experienced staff member has had to take an offer of more secure employment.  This is a grave loss for local tenants, the TAAS itself, as well as the entire network of tenant advice services statewide.

The closure is a direct result of the state government’s announcement last year that it would discontinue the Tenant Advice and Advocacy Program, despite funds coming from the ineterest generated on tenants’ bonds.

Thank you Cairns TAAS for all your work supporting local tenants over many years.
More to come.
