From the tribunal's reasons on the amount

relevant period. 28 It is assisted in the making of its decision by Section 44(4) (see paragraph 12 above). … (3) There are issues with his conduct within the landlord and tenant relationship. Whilst the Tribunal is not over concerned in relation to the condition of the premises, particularly in the light of the protestations by the Applicant that she was happy to remain, it does feel the matter of the mid tenancy “rent increase” does not reflect well upon the Respondent. (4) There does not, however, appear to be any suggestion of previous misconduct, either generally, or with particular reference to housing matters, on his part. 29 The Tribunal also takes the view that the Respondent should not be seen to profit from his unlicensed activities, but notes, also, that the Applicant has had the benefit of the accommodation at 46, Minster Court, convenient for her place of study, for a period of 12 months. … In taking all relevant matters into account the Tribunal takes a view that an order is appropriate. It assesses that an order in respect of the full amount would be for a sum of £3150.00, being a one-half of the total rent paid by the Applicant and her joint tenant.
