This results from the change in legislation we expect to have enacted this year. In 2014, the office issued 271 first appeals from the ongoing revision programme. In 2000, 893 first appeals were processed and issued in respect of the revaluation programme in Dublin. Twenty tribunal appeals were processed by the Valuation Office last year, six of which were appeals relating to the valuation programme. The Valuation (Amendment) (No. 2) Bill, which is currently before the House, seeks to reform the appeals process and eliminate the first appeal from the commission.
