CIL instalments policy

In accordance with the CIL Regulations the City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council has published an Instalments Policy to allow persons liable to the pay CIL by instalments.

This Instalments Policy is made in line with Regulation 69B and 70 of the CIL regulations 2010 (as amended) and is as follows: 

  1. This instalments policy will take effect on the adoption of CIL by the Council on 1 July 2017.
  2. Payment days (the day on which an instalment payment will be due) are calculated from the commencement of development on site. This date will be taken to be the date advised by the developer in the Commencement Notice as laid out in CIL regulation 67.
  3. Payment of instalments are as follows:
Total CIL Liability Proportion Payable and Payment Period
£0 to £24,999 Full payment within 3 months of the commencement date
£25,000 to £149,999 50% at 6 months after the commencement date
50% at 12 months after the commencement date
£150,000 and above 25% at 6 months
25% at 12 months
25% at 18 months after the commencement date
25% at 24 months after the commencement date

In order to be eligible to pay a CIL liability by instalments all relevant statutory forms (including the Assumption of Liability form and the Commencement Notice) must be submitted to the Council prior to the commencement of the chargeable development and all payments must be made in accordance with this CIL instalment policy and other regulatory requirements. Where these requirements are not met the unpaid balance of CIL liability becomes payable in full immediately as laid out in CIL regulation 70(8)(a).
