[F1 Withdrawal of the exemption for self-build housing E+W

54D.— (1) This regulation applies if an exemption for self-build housing is granted and a disqualifying event occurs before the end of the clawback period.

(2) For the purposes of this regulation, a disqualifying event is—

(a) any change in relation to the self-build housing or self-build communal development which is the subject of the exemption such that it ceases to be self-build housing or self-build communal development;

(b) a failure to comply with regulation 54C;

(c) the letting out of a whole dwelling or building that is self-build housing or self-build communal development;

(d) the sale of the self-build housing; or

(e) the sale of the self-build communal development.

(3) Subject to paragraphs (5) and (6), where this regulation applies the exemption for self-build housing granted in respect of the self-build housing or self-build qualifying development is withdrawn and the relevant person is liable to pay—

(a) an amount of CIL equal to the amount of CIL that would have been payable on commencement of the development if the exemption had not been granted; or

(b) where regulation 54A(11) applies, the amount of relief granted.

(4) The relevant person must notify the collecting authority in writing of the disqualifying event before the end of the period of 14 days beginning with the day on which the disqualifying event occurs.

(5) The collecting authority must notify the relevant person at least 28 days before taking any action in relation to a disqualifying event under paragraph (2)(b), informing them of the date after which they intend to take any such action.

(6) If the relevant person submits to the collecting authority a form which complies with the requirements of regulation 54C(3) before the date mentioned in paragraph (5), the exemption is not withdrawn and the collecting authority may take no further action in relation to that disqualifying event.

(7) As soon as practicable after receiving the notice of the disqualifying event (or the expiry of the period in paragraph (5), as the case may be) the collecting authority must notify the relevant person in writing of the amount of CIL payable under paragraph (3).

(8) In this regulation “relevant person” means the person benefitting from the exemption for self-build housing in respect of the dwelling or communal development which has ceased to qualify for the exemption.]
