From the tribunal's reasons on the amount
Section 44 of the 2016 Act provides that where the Tribunal decides to make an RRO against a landlord in favour of a tenant, the amount is to be determined in accordance with that section. In a case concerning an offence under section s0(1) of the 2004 Act, the amount must relate to rent paid during a period, not exceeding 12 months, during which the landlord was committing the offence (section 44(2)). … The first step is to ascertain the relevant period. The offence arose when the remedial works were not completed by 9 February 2023. Except for item 9 (replacement of the broken shower drain cover) which was remedied but later than required, all other offences were continuing when the Applicant left the property on 15 July 2023. The relevant period is thus 10 February 2023 to 15 July 2023 i.e., 5 months, 5 days. … The monthly rent was £1,200. The rent did not include any utilities of any kind which the Applicant paid for separately. Universal credit of £850 per month was received and must be deducted (pursuant to section 44(3)(b)). The Applicant paid rent of £325 per month. This equates to £1,678.55 over the relevant period. It is the maximum amount that could be ordered by the Tribunal. There is no presumption that the RRO will be for the maximum amount. … Consideration turns to the seriousness of the offence. …
