Retirement Village Association President thinks Commerce Commission probe into retirement villages is 'unwarranted'

The Retirement Village Association has expressed puzzlement at the complaints that inspired the Commerce Commission probe into retirement villages.

Both Consumer NZ and the Retirement Village Residents Association have voiced concerns about potential breaches of the Fair Trading Act.

Retirement Village Association President Graham Wilkinson says the Commerce Commission's investigation into complaints isn't warranted.

"The problem is that- simply what we've been told and what we hear in the media is not what we hear everyday by our residents. I mean, more than 100 people move to villages every week. The market's spoken."
