What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant sought a 2.5% end allowance for stanchions in the warehouse and a lower rate for the staircase area. The tribunal found that photographs provided did not support the view that stanchions impeded access, and no evidence was provided to justify a lower rate for the staircase area. The tribunal upheld the existing assessment of £169,000 as reasonable.

Summary generated from the decision text and checked against it. The appellant was Evac & Chair International Ltd, represented.
