Guidance: Project Adjustment Requests
The Department has delegated some decision-making on PARs to Town Deal Boards and Local Authorities. This allows places to modify the agreed spend, outputs and outcomes against any project by up to 30% without requiring formal clearance from the Department.
Please keep in mind that the PAR Form linked below must still be submitted for every change request, delegated and non-delegated
The Department will then issue written confirmation regarding whether the PAR is delegated or not before any changes can proceed.
All interventions must continue meet Towns Fund value for money requirements.
We have publicly committed to a 20 working-day turnaround for any PAR decisions that are not delegated to get projects off the ground and allow for a quicker response to any delivery issues. All PAR Forms should be submitted to towns.fund@communities.gov.uk CC’ing in your dedicated Cities and Local Growth Unit Area Lead for information.
