Tribunal's reasoning
This is a Rent Act 1977 fair rent registration rather than an assured tenancy market rent determination. The fair rent that would otherwise have been assessed was £258.00 per week, but this was capped by the Rent Acts (Maximum Fair Rent) Order 1999, which limits increases based on RPI movement plus a statutory uplift applied to the previous registered rent of £144.00 per week. Applying the prescribed formula produced a maximum fair rent of £204.00 per week (£884.00 pcm), which the Tribunal registered.
