From the tribunal's reasons on the amount

In accordance with section 44 of the 2016 Act, the amount of an Order must relate to rent paid in a period, not exceeding 12 months during which the landlord was committing the offence under section 72(1) of the 2004 Act. The Respondent ceased to commit the offence on 4th October 2019 when the application for the HMO licence was duly made. The relevant period during which the offence was committed was therefore 4th October 2018 to 3rd October 2019 inclusive. … The amount that the landlord is required to pay in respect of a period must not exceed the rent paid in respect of that period. During the relevant period the Applicants paid the sums set out below, (pr0 rated for Applicants 1 and 2 to take account of fact that their last weekly rent payments included rent for several days beyond 3rd October 2019 which is when the offence ceased): Applicant 1 £4633.58 Applicant 2 £3885.64 Applicant 3 £3250 from 15.1.19 to 4.10.19. The Applicant has not provided any bank records regarding the period July 2018- 14 Jan 2019. It is stated on her behalf that a friend who was living with her was paying the rent but we have not been provided with such evidence. We have therefore only taken account of the rent for which there is evidence of payment by the Applicant. Applicant 4 £2135 from 8.12.18 to 1.6.19 31. …
