Had this one crop up twice last week, according to RTT (Adelaide) if a tv point is provided it must be operational, same goes for anything that is provided for the tenant's use ie dishwasher, washing machine, microwave etc. Another tenant asked if a telephone point could be installed so he could have internet, rang RTT to check and was told if a telephone point was provided if must be capable of being activated by the service provider. Put in other words there must be wires leading from the telephone point back to a telstra termination box whereever it is, if a telephone point is not provided then its up to the tenants to organise their own, same goes for the tv point. Its up to the tenant to inspect the property and make sure it meets his needs before applying.
Having said that, from experience a working tv point is something that will crop up time and time again with each new tenant, most prospective tenants don't bother to check if there's a tv point as in this day and age they just expect it to be there, companies such as jims and mr antenna can put up an antenna in the $200-$250 price range, a small cost to keep a good tenant happy.
I'd been having trouble renting a property and finally had someone inspect liked everything, then last thing before she left she said where are the tv points (this was a $600pw property) fortunately it was a nearly new house and tv points had been provided in lounge, family, 2 beds and office, I had my application.
