Tribunal's reasoning
The Tribunal did not determine a market rent because it found the landlord's section 13 notice invalid: the proposed new rent date (10 July) did not coincide with the start of a rental period under the tenancy (which began on the 9th of the month). As the notice failed the third statutory requirement, the Tribunal held it had no jurisdiction to determine a rent, and the existing rent continues until a valid notice is served.
