Planning and Infrastructure BillContribution
The Government are committed to improving land assembly, speeding up site delivery and delivering development for the benefit of our communities. We believe it is right that landowners, including farmers, receive a fair value for their land, but that authorities should not have to compensate landowners for the value of the prospect of a hypothetical planning permission being granted for certain types of development, when to do so is demonstrated to be in the public interest.
