What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant sought to challenge the 2017 rating list RV of £28,750 down to £15,500, but the tribunal clarified it was only dealing with the Transitional Relief Certificate (TRC) appeal. The appellant left the hearing in disagreement with the tribunal's scope determination. In the appellant's absence, the Valuation Officer conceded that a 2.5% allowance should apply to reflect the structural divide between the merged units, resulting in an allowed-in-part outcome with a revised TRC RV of £23,500 effective 31 March 2017.
