A consultation has been published today on the design of a new levy to be paid by developers to fund affordable housing and local infrastructure such as GP surgeries, transport links and school
A new levy will see developers pay a fairer share for affordable housing and local infrastructure such as roads, schools and GP surgeries the Government has announced today, Friday 17 March.
The infrastructure levy, which will replace section 106 contributions for most developments, will prevent developers from negotiating down the amount they contribute to the community when they bring forward new projects.
