From the tribunal's reasons on the amount
Submissions 15 The Tribunal received submissions from the Applicant and the Respondent to the effect that the application being made by the Applicant was out of time. Section 41(2)(b) H&PA requires an application to be made. The Respondent contends that if (which is agreed to be the case) the Applicant left the property on 15th January 2020 then an application dated March 2021 is more than 12 months later. 16 It is the case, however, this application was only made to provide what the Applicant considered to be a properly signed application following the submission of an earlier application by email, accompanied by a separate signature document because the Applicant could not satisfactorily append the signature to the form. That earlier application form was submitted on 18th November 2020 and well within the appropriate timescale. The Tribunal has asked that the office annex a copy of that original form to this decision for the benefit of the Respondent. The electronic trail clearly shows it as received in that date. 17 The only further submission from the Respondent was for the Tribunal to consider the proportionality of any order that might be made, given the financial penalty already imposed and the benefit that the Applicant had received from occupying the property during the relevant period. …
