From the tribunal's reasons on the amount
Having determined that a rent repayment order should be made, the tribunal next considered what the amount of such order should be. … The Applicant argues that this is a repeat offence, the Respondent having been convicted of similar offences in respect of two other properties; the legislation is seeking to deter such offences and so its repetition is an important factor. He also points to purported bad conduct by the Respondent, including entry without consent, harassment when on holiday, attempting to force him to sign a deed of surrender, using sham agreements in an attempt to pass them off as licences and a refusal to fit a lock on his bedroom door. He says this had a major impact on him. … The Respondent made no submissions on the amount but promised to investigate the occupation of Room. They also provided no evidence of financial circumstances or submissions on these. Method of assessing amount of order.

These do not apply where the tenant is seeking to rely on offences under section 72(1) of the 2004 Act, as is the case here. The tribunal therefore has discretion as to the percentage of the rent it can order be repaid. …
