From the tribunal's reasons on the amount
to pay under a RRO (section 44(3) of the 2017 Act? … The amount that can be ordered under an RRO must relate to a period not exceeding 12 months during which the landlord was committing the offence. Further the amount must not exceed the rent paid in respect of that period. … The Tribunal has decided that the Respondent committed the offence from the 1 September 2020 to 8 June 2021 a period of nine months and seven days. … The facts showed that the Applicants paid rent of £2,750 per month. Thus nine months at £2,750 equals £24,750; seven days equals £641.67 (£2,750 x 7/30) which produces a maximum of £25,391.67. … In determining the amount, the Tribunal must have regard in particular, to factors in section 44 of the 2016 Act, namely, the conduct and financial circumstances of the Respondent, whether at any time the Respondent had been convicted of a housing offence to which section 40 applies, and the conduct of the Applicants. … A tribunal must have particular regard to the conduct of both parties (which includes the seriousness of the offence committed), the financial circumstances of the landlord and whether the landlord has at any time been convicted of a relevant offence. The Tribunal should also take into account any other factors that appear to be relevant”.
