Language: English Series: Rating Appeals ; 1992 RA 17-33(9)Publication details: 1992Subject(s): Summary: LT 29 November 1991. A room containing six automated teller machines (ATMs) for dispensing bank notes was assessed, pursuant to a decision of an lvc, as part of a hereditament comprising supermarket and premises. VO appealed to LT and contended that the ATMs should be six separate hereditaments distinct from the supermarket. The ATMs comprised a secure room and an security lobby adjacent to the lobby of the supermarket, built as an integral part of it. Separate financial institutions supplied and installed the ATMs and computer links but they were operated and maintained by supermarket staff. The supermarket also arranged for the weekly cash delivery and ordered future cash supplies.
