What was argued and what the tribunal found

BT sought deletion of the advertising right hereditament, arguing the screens constitute plant rather than land within the meaning of section 64(11) of the Local Government Finance Act 1988, and therefore the statutory framework for advertising hereditaments was not engaged. The tribunal rejected this argument, finding that the StreetHub structure falls within the definition of "land" as including "a sign, hoarding, frame, post or other structure", and that the right to use the screens for advertising is accordingly a right to use land within section 64(11), making section 64(2) engaged and the hereditament properly rateable.
