Use of planning and development powers
15(1)Infrastructure-levy regulations may make provision about how any of the following powers may or may not be exercised—
(a)section 75 of the Town and Country Planning (Scotland) Act 1997 (planning obligations),
(b)section 53 of the Roads (Scotland) Act 1984 (agreements as to use of land near roads),
(c)any other power relating to planning or development.
(2)But provision of the kind mentioned in sub-paragraph (1) may be made only if the Scottish Ministers consider it necessary or expedient for the purpose of—
(a)enhancing the effectiveness of infrastructure levy as a means of raising revenue to fund, or contribute towards funding, infrastructure projects, or
(b)preventing or restricting the use of powers, other than the power to charge infrastructure levy, in circumstances in which the Ministers think using the power to charge infrastructure levy would be more appropriate.
