Community Infrastructure Infrastructure Levy (CIL) is now being developed by local authorities across the country. Two front runner programmes are now underway providing crucial lessons and experience to share. This means CIL is now proving a useful additional source of finance for local authorities and provides greater certainty for developers although it can lack the flexibility of S.106 agreements.

• How can CIL be successfully implemented?
• What does this implementation mean for local authorities and developers'?

This timely event focuses on the practical implementation of CIL and the increasing number of questions which are emerging from it. It provides the opportunity to learn from the local authority front-runners and from developers' initial experience of the levy to ensure that future proposals are fair, profitable, workable and meet the requirements of the regulations.
