Lord Young of Cookham – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Department for Communities and Local Government

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Lord Young of Cookham on 2016-06-10.

To ask Her Majesty’s Government when local authorities have to make the first payment under section 69 of the Housing and Planning Act 2016.

Baroness Williams of Trafford

Before any determination is issued and any payments made under that determination, regulations on the definition of higher value assets must first be passed by both Houses of Parliament. We are currently working on the detail of the regulations.

We shall consult with local authorities and other stakeholders before issuing the determination.
