LON/00AY/LSC/2025/1167 · service charges · Lambeth · decided 9 Jun 2026
The tribunal reduced the management fee to £150 and the reserve fund contribution to £250 a year, disallowed the general building works charges in full, allowed the electricity charges, and made an order under section 20C so the landlord cannot pass its tribunal costs through the service charge.
