<p>The revised National Planning Policy Framework requires local authorities to set
clear policy requirements for infrastructure through plans. These policies should
be informed by evidence on infrastructure need and cost and viability assessments.
At an early stage in the plan-making process, authorities will need to work alongside
infrastructure providers to identify infrastructure requirements, including for education,
health, highways and retail and leisure, and the opportunities for addressing these.</p><p>Local
planning authorities use the Community Infrastructure Levy and Section 106 planning
obligations to require developers to contribute towards the provision and maintenance
of required infrastructure as a result of new housing developments.</p><p> </p>
