What was argued and what the tribunal found
The appellant argued that the basement office should receive a 5% and 7.5% allowance respectively for disruptions caused by adjacent building works (demolition and construction at Middlesex Annex and Arthur Stanley House development), totalling 12.5%. The Valuation Officer had allowed 2.5% for each set of works. The tribunal found that by the material day (October 2019), the significant structural works causing major disruption would have been substantially concluded, with demolition at Middlesex Annex completed by January 2019. Accordingly, the tribunal upheld the VO's 2.5% allowance as reasonable, dismissing the appeals.
