Section 106 - Locally Sourced Materials (Sustainability)

Does anyone have experience in obligating private developers to procure building materials locally (or at least within the UK) through Section 106 agreements? It seems to me that there is a bit of mileage in this given one can require developers to provide local jobs and training. I would think the planning link is through sustainable development policy.

Question is, is it legal in the context of EU law. I suspect not if the contract is sizeable.

On the matter of locally sourced materials - Devon County are doing some proactive work on sourcing local stone for the repair of listed buildings. One of their innitiatives is to look at a local development order that will give rights to quarry stone in limited quantities in appropriate areas. Have a look at the LDO pages on the website.
