   ...surface, the rot is under the ground. BB considered that subsequent builders were easily able to find the rot, however, they had the advantage of being able to remove the cladding and removed the sand to expose the pile.

7. Zhang v Victoria University of Wellington [2023] NZHRRT 36 [pdf, 124 KB]

   ...something which combined with others makes up the whole (whether actually separate from the rest or not)”,2 and there is no reason for “part” not to be given its ordinary meaning. It is consistent with that definition for rooms occupied by RAs to form one part of the catered hall and rooms occupied by students under the age of 20 to form another. Even if, as Mr Zhang submitted, physical segregation is required, it could be argued that requirement is met in this case by the walls of...
