What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant companies appealed for reductions in rateable values on the basis of material changes in circumstances arising from the coronavirus pandemic. The tribunal dismissed all 26 appeals on the preliminary legal point that section 1(4) of the Rating (Coronavirus) and Directors Disqualification (Dissolved Companies) Act 2021 clearly prohibited any reduction in rateable value where the grounds were directly or indirectly attributable to coronavirus, and no exception under section 1(5) applied to the subject properties.
