headline: Leicester hospital trust in court row with council over funding
text: An NHS trust has taken a local council to court over the way it allocated funding from a development.
  University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust has taken Harborough District Council to a judicial review at the High Court in London in connection with a site called Lutterworth East.
  row relates to a Section 106 agreement developers pay to local authorities to support the developments they build.
  written judgement is due shortly.
  Developers pay Section 106 agreements and Community Infrastructure Levies (CILs) as part of planning permission they agree with authorities, with the payment intended to support things like new roads, education and health facilities required by the new community.
  wo-day hearing heard the trust had asked for Section 106 cash of up to £1m to cover costs for medical services at the Lutterworth East development.
  - which includes 2,750 homes, two schools and warehousing - is being developed by Leicestershire County Council.
  rust asked the council to reflect this in the agreement it struck with the developers.
  Harborough District Council said it had considered the request but was not able to accommodate it as funding regulations stood.
  During the hearing, problems arose in establishing exactly what contracts the local NHS were already committed to and how funding was being projected.
  judge, Mr Justice Holgate, said: "There is an allowance for population growth, but no-one knows exactly what it is - after all this hot air."
  After the two-day hearing, he said he would reserve his judgement.
  rties involved expect a written statement from him in the coming days.
