What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant challenged the rateable value of a vehicle repair workshop, arguing that the first floor should be excluded from the valuation due to removal of access stairs. The tribunal found no evidence that the first floor was incapable of beneficial occupation, and that reinstating access would constitute only minor alterations. The tribunal therefore dismissed the appeal and confirmed the rateable value at £82,500.
