It could create a greater focus on securing legal agreements early in the planning process.

The move came as several councillors spoke of residents living on new housing estates in their areas complained that the infrastructure was not in place.

Speaking before the meeting in a question to councillors, Sutton Grange resident, Victoria Moore, said the estate she lived on had been built in 2017, yet there were still uneven roads, missing road signs and still not a playground.
