A Green Belt boundary can only be altered where there are exceptional circumstances and only by means of the Local Plan process of public consultation and independent examination.</p><p>We do not define exceptional circumstances as these can vary from instance to instance. The NPPF however does outline that exceptions in regards to the construction of new buildings in the Green Belt may include:</p><ul><li>buildings for agriculture and forestry;</li><li>provision of appropriate facilities for outdoor sport and recreation and for cemeteries as long as it preserves the openness of the Green Belt and does not conflict with the purposes of including land within it;</li><li>the extension or alteration of a building provided that it does not result in disproportionate additions over and above the size of the original building;</li><li>limited infilling in villages, and limited affordable housing for local community needs under policies set out in the Local Plan.</li></ul> answering member printed Baroness Williams of Trafford question first answered 23/06/2016 14:22:37 answering member 4311 label Biography information for Baroness Williams of Trafford
