ZERO RATED CHARGING ZONES

Good morning all,

I would be grateful for some information on how you are dealing with zero rated CIL charging zones.

We have an area that is zero rated for CIL and I am increasingly finding that developers are just ignoring the CIL process for development in this area.

I tend to feel that if you are building dwellings in a zero rated charging zone you should still complete the CIL paperwork as the development is CIL liable, it is just that the charge is zero. 

How do you people deal with this?

If the CIL process is competely ignored in the zero rated charging zone can we apply surcharges for failure to assume liability, failure to submit a Commencement Notice etc. or am I being too harsh. I just don't like being ignored!

All experiences and suggestions welcomed :)   

Thanks
