figures not yet checked

The tribunal found the 2019 external painting was not properly consulted on, so the management company may recover no more than £250 per leaseholder for it unless dispensation is granted, the £382 managing agent fee was payable, and the landlord cannot add the costs of these proceedings to the service charge.
