From the tribunal's reasons on the amount
should he wish to rent out the subject premises in the future. The tribunal’s decision and reasons. … The tribunal is satisfied that the respondent’s conduct during the tenancy was due to ignorance of the licensing regulations rather than an intended and calculated avoidance of his responsibilities. Further the tribunal finds that the premises did suffer from damp, mould and water penetration although the respondent did attend the premises in a reasonably timely manner when complaints were made. The tribunal also finds that the respondent did carry out repairs to remedy the damp and water penetration, albeit with limited effect. … Further, the tribunal finds that significant sums were being transferred into the bank accounts of the , which were unsupported by any written statement from the family members who were said to have provided them. … Therefore, the tribunal taking as its starting point the 11-month period claimed, determines in all the circumstance that a RRO in the sum of £6,250 is to be paid by the respondent to the applicants jointly, as it is a matter for each applicant to determine how the sum is to be divided (if at all) in light of the tribunal’s findings. … The tribunal is not satisfied that the applicant was not in receipt of UC during the period of the tenancy and therefore, determines that the claim for a RRO should be reduced. …
