From the tribunal's reasons on the amount

obtained from committing the offence. These two components are then added together to determine the final penalty amount that will be imposed on a landlord. … The level of the penalty was set based on the Applicant’s culpability being reckless (acting with foresight / wilful blindness) because the Applicant had previously held a similar licence for the Property as that at issue; he had ignored reminders, had informed the Respondent on 25 July 2018 that he had intentionally not made his application as his tenant planned to vacate the Property and the Applicant did not plan to re-let it, but had allowed another tenant into occupation on 1 September 2018 and it was only from prompting by the Respondent on 24 October 2018 that the application had been submitted, received on 1 November 2019. … As to the seriousness of harm this was assessed at the lowest level as no direct evidenced harm was caused to the tenant or the community as a result of the non- application. Category 2 hazards were identified at the Property but were low scoring hazards and had since been rectified. … In this instance the Respondent indicated that as this was a moderate offence a financial investigation was unnecessary “……as the income considered was the income that the Applicant received in relation to the property when the offence occurred.” No adjustment was made, therefore. …
