McLoughlin Planning

@rcolvile Now this is a lot more significant as it sets the parameters by which a plan should be developed.

Oh, and Labour are also increasing housing targets with a bias towards least affordable areas - which may well tilt numbers more towards areas like this.

The new NPPF (which they've helpfully done track changes on) introduces a new category of green belt land called 'grey belt', which is exempt from existing restrictions on green belt land.

@rcolvile It’s not so much a legal question but rather a question of planning judgement. If I was looking at this, I’d be carefully evaluating the relationship of the land parcel in question with the existing pattern of development.

Here are those purposes. The key one looks to be 'safeguarding the countryside from encroachment'. Building on undeveloped green belt land is v probably going to encroach on the countryside. Qu for the lawyers is where the balance lies, and how limited a 'limited contribution' is
