What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant disputed the VO's contention that the proposal was invalid because the appellant had not correctly identified the property and was not an interested person in the property specified by the Billing Authority reference number. The tribunal examined both the VO's maps and the appellant's Land Registry documentation and concluded that both parties had identified the same property as being occupied by the appellant's company, albeit under different addresses due to address anomalies in the rating records. The tribunal found that the appellant had made his intention clear as to which property he wished to appeal against, and accordingly determined the proposal to be validly made against the property actually occupied.
