What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant challenged rateable values for 146 serviced office suites at the property on grounds including tone of the compiled list and material change in circumstance arising from adjacent building works. The parties reached agreements in principle and presented agreed valuations at the tribunal hearing. The tribunal ratified the agreements, which reduced the main tone rate from £395 per m² to £380 per m² and applied 4% and 8% allowances respectively for the periods of building works disturbance.
