CHI/00HN/LIS/2022/0034 · LIS · Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole · decided 19 Jul 2023
The Tribunal found that the special levies demanded in December 2022 and February 2023 were not reasonable because it was not reasonable to demand them in that manner for the whole major works in one phase, and it could not yet determine reasonable charges for later phases.
