From the tribunal's reasons on the amount
The Applicant confirmed that she was not in receipt of universal credit during the applicable period. The Tribunal is therefore satisfied that the maximum amount of the RRO is £5,200. The amount of the RRO in the present case. The Tribunal notes that the conditions set out in section 46 of the 2016 Act (which provides that, in certain circumstances, the amount of a rent repayment order is to be the maximum that the Tribunal has power to make) are not met. … These decisions concern the amount of a rent repayment order under the provisions of the 2004 Act which apply when a relevant offence started to be committed before 6 April 2017. … Accordingly, the Tribunal has proceeded on the basis that (i) there is no presumption that there will be a 100% refund of payments made, (ii) the benefit obtained by the tenant in having had the accommodation is not a material consideration (iii) the Tribunal has a general discretion which must be exercised judicially and (iv) the net benefit received by the landlord from the letting is a material consideration. … The Respondent has not sought to engage with these proceedings and has provided no evidence. The Applicant stated that her rent was inclusive of gas, water and internet bills. …
