NZPIF opposes Wellington rental WOF
The Council is working in partnership with public health experts from the University of Otago to try and lift rental standards in the Capital.
Wellington mayor Justin Lester said it was the first such scheme in the country and aimed to make better accommodation available for people.
The scheme will involve an app that will allow tenants and landlords to check their house against minimum health standards designed by experts.
It will also allow landlords to request a full inspection by a professional, which will cost $250, to be certified as meeting the standard.
