Section 43(1) of the 2016 Act the Tribunal may make a rent repayment order if it is satisfied beyond reasonable doubt that the Respondent, as landlord of the subject property, has committed an offence listed in section 40 of the 2016 Act, namely an offence under section 95(1) of the 2004 Act, which provides – A person commits an offence if he is a person having control of or managing a house which is required to be licensed under [Part 3] … but is not so licensed. 12 In the present case the identity of the landlord and any person committing an offence under section 95(1) is not entirely clear; and the issue is complicated by the involvement of a number of different companies. … She is the ‘human face’ of the three companies. … 18 However, in the circumstances the identity of the landlord and any person committing an offence under section 95(1) of the 2004 Act is of no consequence and it is not necessary (or appropriate) for the Tribunal to resolve any uncertainty. …
