33 Right to assign rights or sub-let

(1) It is a term of every residential tenancy agreement that:

(a) the tenant may, with the prior consent of the landlord, assign the whole or part of the tenant’s interest under the agreement or sub-let the residential premises, and

(c) the landlord shall not make any charge for giving such a consent, other than for the landlord’s reasonable expenses in giving consent.

(2) Despite section 133B of the Conveyancing Act 1919 or any other law, it is not an implied term of a residential tenancy agreement that the landlord shall not unreasonably withhold or refuse consent to an assignment or sub-letting referred to in subsection (1).
