What lies beneath: regeneration
The Office of the Deputy Prime Minister (OPDM) figures for 2004 (released in July 2005) indicated a rise of the percentage of homes built on brownfield sites to be 70% of all new homes, compared to only 57% prior to 1997. Land Remediation Tax Relief (LRTR) is the principal relief aimed at encouraging many house builders to move into brownfield regeneration. (Taxation, 9 February 2006, by Alun Oliver)
