Hypothetically.
If the police were called to a boarding house and found one tenant clearly under the influence of crystal methamphetamine. Let’s say the noise of the banging, thumping, calling out, swearing and yelling was disturbing the other tenants.

Try that again in english, even google translate doesn’t do gobbledegook
yet.

Just confess your crime and you will be fine.

Not really much the police can do unless an actual crime is committed,
such as assault or theft.

There are offensive behaviour crimes but that usually applies to acts
committed while in public spaces.

Is it possible to convince the landlord to have the tenant evicted?

Not so far. The drug user seems to be a protected species.

Couldn't the user be invited to stay in a police cell until the effects wear off?

At least the other tenants could get a decent night's sleep.

It doesn't seem right that the hard-core drug user just keeps doing what he wants to do no matter how much it interferes with others' "quiet enjoyment of the premises".

Nope, the landlord doesn’t get to do that.

They realise that there is a lot of it about and don’t care.

Not with the virus around and no point even if there wasn’t.

That’s always a problem with boarding houses, only the dregs use them.

That doesn’t apply to boarding houses.

That's not true. I would live in one myself if there was meals provided.

The LL is indeed responsible for the genuine concerns of those in his house and breaching rules can get you kicked out.

** If you live in someone's home as a "boarder" you can expect to be fed dinner at least.

In most registered boarding houses, you get to do you own cooking.
