This consultation invites views on the proposed introduction of a Building Safety Levy on new residential development in Scotland.
Footnotes
1 The information the Scottish Government receives from HM Treasury regarding the composition of Scotland's Block Grant does not identify Scotland's share of spending related to revenues from the RPDT. However, on the basis of the UK Government's stated position that:
- the RPDT would seek to raise at least £2 billion over a decade; and
- the revenues from the RPDT will be used to fund cladding remediation work in England,
The Scottish Government could expect to receive an average of £19.4 million per annum in Barnett consequentials.
