Struck outNew rulesDecided 17 September 2026Case MAN/30UK/MRA/2026/0041
No rent was set
The application was struck out, so the tribunal did not set a rent. This most often happens when the landlord's notice was invalid or the tribunal had no jurisdiction.
In short
The landlord proposed raising the rent of a flat in PR1 from £675 per calendar month to £775 per calendar month. The tribunal decided the notice was invalid and of no effect because it specified a start date of 8 August 2026, which is not the beginning of a tenancy period as section 13(2) of the Housing Act 1988 requires. The tribunal therefore made no determination of market rent.
