From the tribunal's reasons on the amount
The section 72(4)(b) defence. It is not in dispute that with effect from 1 September 2023 the Property became subject to the additional licensing designation introduced by PCC. Nor is it disputed that on 4 June 2024 the Respondent submitted an application for an HMO additional licence to PCC. … The fees charged by PCC in respect of HMO licence applications are levied in 2 parts. The part 1 fee is described as follows [124]: ‘Part 1: Application fee (payable at the time of submitting an application) - This element of the fee will cover the costs incurred by the council to process the application up to the point of the decision being made to issue or refuse the licence. This fee is non-refundable.’ 25.
