Planning and Development (Amendment) Bill, 2002: Second Stage.

 

Payment of the levy will be a condition of the planning permission for each house and will be the responsibility of the developer. There may be concerns that this cost will be immediately passed on to the purchasers of the houses but the section prohibits this. It provides that if an agreement of sale includes a requirement on a purchaser to pay the levy, that term of the agreement will be void and the money, if paid over, can be recovered.
