Planning Act 2008

Section 223:  Relationship with other powers

372.Subsection (1) provides that CIL regulations may include provision about controlling the use of section 106 of the TCPA 1990 (which relates to planning obligations) and section 278 of the Highways Act 1980 (which relates to agreements with highways authorities for highways works). It also provides power to make CIL regulations about the exercise of any other power relating to planning and development (subsection (2)) and for the Secretary of State to give guidance to charging and other authorities on the exercise of such powers (subsection (3)). The purposes to which any of these regulation-making or guidance giving powers may be put are circumscribed by subsection (4). For example, they may be used to enhance the effectiveness or use of CIL regulations (for example, to encourage charging authorities to charge CIL) or to prevent or restrict the entering into of agreements (or the giving of undertakings) under section 106 of the TCPA 1990 or section 278 of the Highways Act 1980 in addition to CIL. Finally, subsection (5) provides powers for CIL regulations to control the exercise of powers to give directions or guidance.
