What was argued and what the tribunal found
The appellant challenged the effective date of 204 car parking spaces entering the 2017 rating list, arguing it should be 31 October 2022 (when alterations split a single hereditament) or alternatively 24 January 2022 (when the car park first entered). The Tribunal found that the car parking spaces existed before 1 April 2017 and were in the appellant's control, and that regulation 14(1B) required the alteration to have effect from when the circumstances giving rise to the alteration first occurred. Since the spaces existed prior to the 2017 list start date, the effective date of 1 April 2017 was correct, as this was the earliest possible date in the 2017 list.
