Rating

For the 6th year in Leeds, we have a panel of leading practitioners to answer questions from the audience on a number of topical rating issues. Questions and topics will come from the chair, Andrew Hetherton, the panel and the audience.

The National Rating Day has become a tradition in the rating world where practitioners attend to be updated on current topics, network and contribute to help shape changes for the future.  Speakers represent the private sector, the Valuation Office Agency (VOA) and the Valuation Tribunal Service (VTS).

The conference is always popular – attracting over 300 practitioners. If you are involved in rating work, this is the event that is too important to miss.

Judicial Review has been used to stop, review, frustrate and even force decisions made by a public or regulatory authority. It is a hugely tactical environment where cost capping, time limits, and case law are used to win the day in Court. This instructive conference will ensure that parties bringing and defending challenges are able to do so most effectively by referencing and using topical examples, like the Heathrow JR. The speakers will follow worked examples through from justification to finish to ensure a thorough review of JR procedures.

This is a comprehensive review of the procedures, skills and expectations for those that take rating disputes to the Valuation or Upper Tribunal (Lands Chamber). Understanding the tribunal procedures, adhering to the duties and expectations of an expert, and the impact of Gardiner Theobald LLP v. Jackson (VO) 2018 are key reasons to attend.
