figures not yet checkedThe tribunal found the tenant owes nothing for 2016-17 to 2021-22 because the invoices lacked the required summary of rights, the landlord did not prove insurance, and the parapet wall repair was not recoverable; it declined to decide the current and future years and ordered the landlord to pay the fees and legal costs.
