What was argued and what the tribunal found

Liverpool City Council proposed to alter the rateable value of the Walker Art Gallery. The Valuation Officer contended the proposal was invalid because Liverpool City Council was not an interested person and because another proposal on the same grounds had been made by National Museums Liverpool (through Powis Hughes Ltd), which had been agreed to reduce the RV to £1 effective 1 April 2015. The tribunal, with the appellant absent and no evidence bundle produced, accepted the VO's argument and held the proposal invalid.
