Canterbury earthquake:  Accommodation

The Canterbury Earthquake Temporary Accommodation Service (CETAS), a joint venture between the Department of Building and Housing and the Ministry of Social Development, is available to help those people affected by the quakes who may be having difficulty accessing alternative accommodation.

It will help them to work out what kind of temporary accommodation suits them best, and will match and place people in available accommodation. This includes accommodation in the private rental market and portable homes.
