My tenant when closing a bedroom window broke the handle to the PVC window so I was wondering who pays for a new handle to be fitted?

Many thanks
 
I would say the tenant should pay.

The landlord is only responsible for normal wear and tear.

Unless, of course, there is something specific in the lease.
 
There is probably no clear answer. If it broke accidently and they are good tenants then you should consider paying for it.
