CIL process in Arun Stage 5: Commencement Notice

CIL becomes payable on commencement of development. The CIL Regulations require that a liable person(s) submits a Commencement Notice to us stating the day that they intend to commence development. The Commencement Notice must be submitted to us at least a day before the development commences. We will acknowledge receipt of a Commencement Notice.

If a liable person wishes to change the commencement date they may simply submit a revised Commencement Notice to us.

NB It is vital that a Commencement Notice is submitted before development commences. The CIL Regulations provide that where a Commencement Notice has not been received before commencement, the liable person(s) will no longer be able to benefit from the Instalment Policy. In addition, we will issue a mandatory surcharge up to £2,500.
