Payments of £500 and above
All councils are expected to publicise payments over £500 under the Code of Recommended Practice for Local Authorities on Data Transparency.
Publication of these lists forms part of Normanton Town Council’s commitment to being open and transparent with its residents. These will include all individual items the town council purchases, payments made to contractors carrying out work on our behalf and other expenditure incurred in carrying out town council business.
They will exclude payments made to staff, commercially sensitive information and any payments which may reveal personal details about an individual. Therefore, in some cases, we will need to redact information to ensure compliance with the Data Protection Act.

Community Infrastructure Levy
Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) is a tariff system that allows local authorities to raise funds from developers undertaking new building projects in their area. There is a national requirement for a ‘meaningful proportion’ of CIL revenue to be passed directly to local communities and these funds will be transferred to parish and town councils, where they exist. In Wakefield, this has been agreed at 15% of the receipt where no neighbourhood plan exists.
CIL Regulations set out that CIL has to be spent to support the development of the relevant area, funding the provision, improvement, replacement, operation or maintenance of infrastructure; OR Anything else that is concerned with addressing the demands that development places on an area.
CIL Regulations 59C and 59F
Each year, a report must be submitted to Wakefield District Council relating to CIL receipts/expenditure and copies of the report can be accessed here.
