Bernard J. Durkan
Ceist:59 Mr. Durkan asked the Minister for the Environment if, in the case of appeals by commercial ratepayers against valuations imposed by the valuation office, the revised valuation applies from the date of submission of the appeal or from the date on which the decision issues from the valuation officer, which could be up to two years later with consequent financial loss to the ratepayer; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
