From the tribunal's reasons on the amount

The applicant did not provide evidence of any previous criminal conviction on the part of the respondents. No financial evidence of the respondents’ circumstances was provided to the tribunal. Therefore, having taken all of the relevant circumstances and factors into account including the seriousness of the offence for which, to the knowledge of the tribunal, no financial penalty had been levied on the respondents, the tribunal considers the appropriate RRO to make is a sum that represents 60% of the rent claimed. Therefore the tribunal makes an Order that the respondents pay to the applicant the sum of £3,278.08. … The tribunal also makes an Order requiring the respondents to reimburse the application and hearing fees of £377 (total) to the applicant. … The sums at paragraphs 21 and 22 above are to be paid to the applicant by the respondents within 14 days of the date of this decision being sent to the parties.
