What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant argued that the main space rates applied to both industrial units were excessive and should be reduced to £90/m2 based on analysed rental evidence. The tribunal found the existing rates of £106.49/m2 and £116.95/m2 were excessive but not to the extent claimed, reducing Unit 13 to £160,000 RV (£100/m2) and Unit 16 to £161,000 RV (£105/m2) effective from 1 April 2023, having regard to rental evidence, comparable assessments, size matrix principles, and the guidance in Lotus and Delta v Culverwell.
