<p>We do not collate information centrally on the number of sites that are available
for residential development. Local planning authorities are required to identify and
update annually a supply of specific deliverable sites sufficient to provide five
years worth of housing against their housing requirements. Whether those sites are
in the Green Belt is again a matter for local planning authorities to consider in
line with national planning policy, which makes clear that Green Belt boundaries should
be altered only in exceptional circumstances.</p>
