From the tribunal's reasons on the amount

the tribunal could order under s.44 or s.45. The terms of s.44(3) and (4) similarly suggest that, in some cases, the amount of the order will be less than the rent paid in respect of the period mentioned in the table in s.44(2), though the amount must “relate to” the total rent paid in respect of that period. … It therefore cannot be the case that the words “relate to rent paid during the period …” in s. 44(2) mean “equate to rent paid during the period …”. It is clear from s. 44 itself and from s. 46 that in some cases the amount of the RRO will be less than the total amount of rent paid during the relevant period. … 44(3) specifies that the total amount of rent paid is the maximum amount of an RRO and s. 44(4) requires the FTT, in determining the amount, to have regard in particular to the three factors there specified. The words of that subsection leave open the possibility of there being other factors that, in a particular case, may be taken into account and affect the amount of the order. … However, the amount of the RRO must always “relate to” the amount of the rent paid during the period in question. It cannot be based on extraneous considerations or tariffs, or on what seems reasonable in any given case. …
