520			_aLT 1 May 1987. Ratepayer`s(R) appeal against lvc decision which determined that a caravan with connected services and car port sited on a building plot and occupied by R whilst he built a bungalow was properly included in the Valuation List. Lvc satisfied that the caravan was capable of exclusive and beneficial occupation and that the degree of permanence was sufficient to justify valuation for rating purposes. An ingredient of rateable occupation is that possession must not be for too transient a period. R submitted that, the caravan was temporary permitted development and was occupied by him whilst engaged in construction of a dwelling, the period during which he could so occupy it was open-ended; until the bungalow was completed; planning permission was for a limited period and so occupation was transient. R had been in occupation for 21 months and the LT was left in no doubt that R`s occupation could not be said to be transient. Appeal dismissed.
