What was argued and what the tribunal found
The appellant sought to merge two contiguous industrial units into one hereditament with effect from 1 April 2014, proposing a valuation of £1. The Tribunal found that the proposal was not validly made because it was not a "relevant proposal" under the regulations. Although Section 64(3ZA) of the Local Government Finance Act 1988 (as amended) allows properties in common occupation meeting the contiguity condition to be treated as one hereditament, this power existed from the material date and did not require the Rating (Property in Common Occupation) Act 2018 to come into force. Accordingly, the proposal should have been made before 31 March 2017 and was therefore invalid.
