Section 106 agreements

There are 2 separate Section 106 (S106) proforma templates that can be used by applicants their agents according to the matters to be secured. They are:

1: S106 for EFSAC matters only

2: S106 (covering a range of matters)

Before completing and returning a S106 agreement, it is recommended that you first obtain independent legal advice. We are unable to offer this service to you.

An undertaking for legal fees will be requested by our legal representatives before any work is carried out. In the event that significant redrafting is required to your s106, our legal representative reserves the right to charge for its reasonable costs.

Please see below a guidance note for the process and the relevant application form.
