The Regulation implements the moratorium on tenancy evictions for rental arrears due to a tenant being financially impacted by COVID-19. It also extends the eviction notice periods in certain circumstances to 90 days. There is also a schedule that deals specifically for boarding house residents who are financially impacted by COVID-19.

The new residential tenancy measures can be found on the NSW Fair Trading website
