What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant argued that a quantum allowance should be applied to the main space price due to the appeal property being the largest unit on the estate, with comparables showing 12-19% reductions per m2. The tribunal found that the VO's removal of quantum was unreasonable, as similar sized reductions had been applied to smaller units in the original scheme. The appeal was allowed with a revised RV of £93,500 at £47 per m2 instead of £57 per m2.
