What was argued and what the tribunal found
The appellant sought to merge two contiguous hereditaments (Daventry International Rail Freight Terminal and W H Malcolm warehouse) under the Rating (Property in Common Occupation) Act 2018. The tribunal found that a merger proposal could have been validly submitted prior to the legislative change, meaning the current proposals did not qualify as "relevant proposals" under the 2018 regulations, which require proposals that can only be made as a result of the change in law. The proposals were therefore invalid.
Summary generated from the decision text and checked against it. The appellant was Malcolm Group Limited, represented.
