It is the work of officers and has not been formally considered by any authority. It therefore does not represent the views of any authority or other body. Comments on the paper are welcome and can be forwarded to [email protected] or [email protected]. Executive Summary Page 1 of 4 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The review comprises: 1. The working paper drafted in March 2006 and finalised in April 2006 2. The assessment paper drafted in July 2006 and finalised in August 2006 3. The implications paper produced in August 2006 The review is the work of officers and has not been formally considered by any authority. The findings of the review have been considered in the formulation of the draft 3 Cities SRS and the draft Northern SRS which will form part of the Regional Plan to be published on 28 September 2006 and tested at a public examination in 2007. A project plan produced and agreed in December 2005 and added to in April 2006 have guided the review work. The review has started from the point that the principle of the green belt is well established and will remain. However, the review is related to the needs of development in the areas where there is green belt at present. General areas for possible extensions to the green belt have also been considered. The government's sustainable communities plan requires that the current area of green belt land within each region should be maintained or increased.
