HC Deb 09 January 2003 vol 397 c351W
Mr. Love

To ask the Deputy Prime Minister what assessment has been undertaken of the operation by local authorities of section 106 planning obligations; and if he will make a statement. [89395]

Mr. McNulty

The consultation document "Reforming Planning Obligations—delivering a fundamental change" issued in December 2001 received over 500 replies. Many of these were from local authorities that provided information on how they use planning obligations.

The Office of the Deputy Prime Minister will publish a further consultation document on planning obligations in the near future.
