What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant claimed not to have received the Form of Return or reminder notices from the Valuation Officer, seeking to argue they had no reasonable excuse for non-compliance with the information request. The tribunal found that correspondence was sent to the correct address at 8 West Street and, given that no letters were returned unopened, it was unlikely all letters were lost in post. The tribunal dismissed the appeal and declined to mitigate the penalty.

Summary generated from the decision text and checked against it. The appellant was Savvi Travel Oundle Ltd, represented.
