CLP POWER HONG KONG LTD v. COMMISSIONER OF RATING AND VALUATION
- Citation
- CLP POWER HONG KONG LTD v. COMMISSIONER OF RATING AND VALUATION
- Court
- Lands Tribunal
- Case number
- LDRA365/2004
Leave to appeal was refused because CLP failed to demonstrate a reasonable prospect of success or any error of law: the Lands Tribunal lawfully exercised its discretion in disallowing costs for valuation approaches it found unreliable, inappropriate or unnecessary (approaches 2 and 3 and CB costs); the tribunal reasonably concluded those approaches increased length and costs and were discrete issues; alleged taxing difficulties and risk of a vacuum did not justify disturbing the costs order.
