Operators and residents urged to have a say on SA’s proposed regulations for new Retirement Villages (Miscellaneous) Amendment Act 2024

Stakeholder feedback will help shape the proposed amendments to the state’s Retirement Villages Regulations 2017. 

Key changes include:  

  • Improved transparency in contracts and disclosure statements for prospective residents; 

  • Enhanced codes of conduct for retirement village operators, staff and residents; 

  • Stronger emergency procedures and safety standards; 

  • Updated dispute resolution processes and responsibilities for resident committees; and 

  • Clearer guidelines for making changes to residence rules. 

The consultation also explores what information would be helpful to include in a public register of retirement villages, allowing people to make informed decisions when choosing a retirement village.  

The consultation will close on Sunday, 11 May 2025. Contact yourSAy
