What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant sought additional allowances for material changes of circumstances arising from adjacent building works at 1-2 Broadgate and 1-14 Liverpool Street, and for loss of amenity in Broadgate Circle. The Valuation Officer had already granted some allowances (2.5%-5% depending on location). The tribunal found the VO's allowances were already reasonable, as the most disruptive demolition works had occurred before the material date of 13 January 2023, and the BREEAM outstanding-rated building would shield remaining works. No additional allowances were warranted for either building disturbance or loss of amenity.", <parameter name="cases_cited">["Gardiner & Theobald LLP v David Jackson (VO) [2018] UKUT 0253 (LC)", "4th Floor Veritas House, 125 Finsbury Pavement (CHG100327665)", "3rd Floor, 23rd-33rd Floors and 21st Floor at The Broadgate Tower, 20 Primrose Street (503025240348/053N10; 503025240338/053N10; and 503025993578/538N10)", "2nd Floor Finsbury Avenue", "Hanover Square", "Victoria"]
