One on replacing S106 contributions with a "new, improved" system. And one on replacing 'overcomplicated EU environmental regulations' with a "new, improved" system.

The S106 proposal mentions moving the liability from the start of a project (during planning) to the end, to capture increases in land value. I can see how it will improve developers' cashflow, and I suspect it might lead to one-off development companies that are liquidated just before the project is completed, but I haven't read the consultations yet :devil:
