What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant contested the completion date of 25 November 2019 set by the billing authority for two newly built industrial units, arguing that substantial outstanding works remained including incomplete access roads, missing internal fixtures, and unfinished utility connections. The tribunal found that the billing authority's two-week timeframe was reasonable for completion of the non-essential internal items, and that no compelling evidence demonstrated the works could not have been completed within that period, dismissing the appeals.
