Commentary on Sections Carrying out of works
184.Paragraph 11 provides that where the whole or part of the consideration consists of construction, improvement, repair or other works to enhance the value of the land, the value of the works counts as chargeable consideration. However, such works will not count as chargeable consideration if they are carried out after the effective date of the transaction, on the land acquired (or some other land held by the buyer or somebody connected with the buyer), and are not required to be carried out by the seller under the transaction. This is subject to paragraph 18 (arrangements involving public or educational bodies).
