FOI request (FOIR-747861303)

Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL)

Requested Tue 09 September 2025
Responded Fri 19 September 2025

1. Do you currently charge Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL)? If yes, what date did you adopt a CIL charging schedule?

For each of the years 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024 and so far in 2025 (January – December), please provide:

2. The number of CIL demand notices you have issued.

a. Of those, the number related to the building of an extension or an annex.

3. The sum monetary total of the CIL demand notices issued.

a. Of that total, the amount related to the building of an extension or an annex.

Explanatory note: my understanding is that all CIL payments and requests for payments are done through a demand notice. I am essentially asking how much CIL money you have asked for. If additional CIL money is ever requested via a method which does not involve a demand notice, please do include this with an explanation note.

4. The total amount of late payment interest accrued by CIL payments and the total amount of the late payment interest outstanding (the two figures separated).

a. Of those totals, the amounts relating to the building of an extension or an annex.

5. The total number of CIL payments you have made repayments on or cancelled, (and the overall monetary value) outside the scope of a Regulation 113 Review.

a. Of those, the number related to the building of an extension or an annex.

b. Of the number related to the building of an extension or an annex, the number made due to errors on, or the omission of, the relevant CIL Forms, by the liable party.

If possible, please provide this figure broken down by errors of typology.

Explanatory note: When asking about repayments made (and payments cancelled) outside the scope of a Regulation 113 Review, I am essentially asking about discretionary repayments which are given (or payments cancelled) when the council is not technically at fault. For example, when someone could legally be charged CIL but the council has decided not to do this.

6. The number of Regulation 113 requests there have been.

a. Of those, the number related to the building of an extension or an annex.

b. If possible, please provide both the total number and the number related to the building of an extension or an annex split by outcome.
