This ACE route is open to previous recipients and non-recipients, who can request Permission to Apply until 30 September.</p><p>The question refers to Arts Council England’s (ACE) application window, and therefore this answer likewise refers to ACE processes and to applicants who could have applied through ACE, rather than through the other DCMS Arms Length Bodies involved in delivering the Culture Recovery Fund. Different considerations apply for processes run by other Arms Length Bodies.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Gosport answering member printed Caroline Dinenage question first answered 15/09/2021 15:29:32 answering member 4008 label Biography information for Dame Caroline Dinenage

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 29/04/2021 answer text <p>This Government is committed to protecting and enhancing the Green Belt and there are strong protections for Green Belt land provided in the National Planning Policy Framework. A local authority can alter the boundary of Green Belt land only in exceptional circumstances and where it can demonstrate that it has fully examined all other reasonable options for meeting its development need. <br> <br> This means that the authority should show that it has used as much brownfield land as possible, optimised development densities, and discussed with neighbouring authorities whether they could accommodate some of the development needed. The Framework also makes clear that most new building is inappropriate in the Green Belt and should be refused planning permission unless there are very special circumstances. <br> <br> Some examples of these circumstances are listed in the Framework, such as buildings for agriculture, or limited infilling in villages. The protection of Green Belt land will continue under the reforms of the planning system currently under consideration.</p> answering member constituency Tamworth answering member printed Christopher Pincher question first answered 29/04/2021 08:17:33 answering member 4075 label Biography information for Christopher Pincher
