What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant claimed not to have received the Form of Return or reminder notices issued by the Valuation Officer for the 2026 revaluation, and appealed against a £100 penalty imposed for non-compliance within 56 days. The tribunal found that the correspondence address must have been correct, as the appellant received the penalty notice and subsequently completed the form; the likelihood of all correspondence being lost in the post was considered improbable. The appeal was dismissed and the penalty was not remitted or mitigated.
