answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 01/07/2019 answer text <p>Local and combined authorities already have broad compulsory purchase powers, which can be used to bring brownfield land back into use. We have recently introduced wide-ranging reforms to make the Compulsory Purchase Order process clearer, fairer and faster. Our reforms in the Neighbourhood Planning Act 2017 and Housing and Planning Act 2016 include clarification of the ‘no scheme principle’ which underpins compensation for compulsory purchase, making it easier and quicker to establish the fair market value of sites. We are keen to let these important reforms bed-in, but will keep the operation of the system under review.</p> answering member constituency North West Hampshire answering member printed Kit Malthouse question first answered 01/07/2019 16:16:54 answering member 4495 label Biography information for Kit Malthouse
