Written Question
Housing Estates: Infrastructure
Tuesday 24th March 2026

Asked by: Jonathan Davies (Labour - Mid Derbyshire)

Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, if he will make an assessment of the adequacy of powers held by (a) Government and (b) local authorities to compel housing developers to complete works so that infrastructure can be adopted on newly developed housing estates.

Answered by Matthew Pennycook - Minister of State (Housing, Communities and Local Government)

The government does not provide any direct financial or other support to assist Local Planning Authorities (LPAs) in adopting infrastructure on newly developed housing estates.

LPAs can use Section 106 planning obligations to secure a commitment from developers to deliver infrastructure that is necessary to make a development acceptable in planning terms. LPAs may take enforcement action in respect of any breach of the obligations contained within a Section 106 agreement.

I otherwise refer the hon. Member to the Written Ministerial Statement on 18 December 2025 (HCWS1210) and the answer given to Question UIN 112724 on 3 March 2026.
