NWUPC is pleased to invite members to an upcoming webinar exploring the new Building Safety Levy and its potential implications for Higher Education estates, development projects and procurement activities.

The Building Safety Levy is a new tax on residential developments in England, due to come into force on 1 October 2026. While primarily introduced to support building safety remediation, the levy is expected to have wider implications for organisations undertaking estate development and capital projects.

Delivered by legal experts from Weightmans LLP, this webinar will provide an overview of the new levy and explore:

  • What the Building Safety Levy is and why it is being introduced
  • When the levy will apply and how charges will be calculated
  • The potential impact on development viability and project costs
  • Key considerations for procurement and estates professionals
  • The relationship between the levy and building control processes
  • Accessing reduced rates for developments on previously developed land
  • Practical and commercial challenges institutions may face as the levy is implemented

This session will provide valuable insight for procurement professionals, estates teams, and anyone involved in planning, delivering or managing construction and development projects within Higher Education.
