What was argued and what the tribunal found
The appellant, Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums, challenged the entries for three museum properties in the 2017 rating list. After a preliminary issue regarding strike-out was resolved, the parties reached an agreement to reduce the rateable values of all three properties to a nominal £1 effective from 1 April 2017. The tribunal ratified this agreed settlement and allowed the appeals.
