What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant failed to provide information requested by the VOA within the required 56-day period for the 2023 rating list, despite receiving a notice and reminder notices. The appellant claimed he did not receive the reminders and that the form went astray while with his accountant. The tribunal found that the information was in the appellant's possession or control and that he had not demonstrated a reasonable excuse for non-compliance, upholding the £100 penalty.
