Amendment
The rules on previously developed sites which will benefit from a discounted building safety levy are updated to exclude:
- sites where a building was completely underground; and
- sites where operations have been previously carried out unlawfully.
The definition for building is updated to make it clear that permanent buildings, structures or erections, including areas surfaced with man-made materials and plant and machinery are in scope to be considered as previously developed land.
Technical changes are also made.
