520			_aRICS welcomes the renewed focus on brownfield development, particularly to help alleviate housing pressures in urban environments. However, often councils do want to build on brownfield land but face challenges, particularly around making-safe potentially decontaminated sites, which is a costly and complex endeavour. The Government’s current proposal seemingly does not acknowledge these difficulties, with there being a distinct lack of funding to support already stretched local councils and planning departments to realise this aim.
