I've renamed this (excellent) page since green belts are no longer solely a UK issue and there were separate pages "Green belt" and "Green Belt" distinguished only by capitalisation, and dealing with the general concept and with UK greenbelts respectively. "Green Belt" now redirects to "Green belt", which has a link to this page as a prominent example. Hope this meets with everyone's approval. Best wishes, Cambyses 21:13, 26 May 2004 (UTC)
Shouldn't we say something about London leaping over the greenbelt? Mark Richards 21:19, 26 May 2004 (UTC)
I removed this text: "The Campaign to Protect Rural England (CPRE) has been campaigning since 1926 for the protection of the countryside from urban sprawl. It influences planning policy, and seeks urban regeneration as a way to protect the countryside from urban sprawl. In 1955, in response to CPRE pressure, the Government set out a Green Belt policy. In 2005 CPRE celebrates 50 years of the Green Belt policy but will highlight the latest development pressures which threaten Green Belts."
It is highly POV cliam green belts as a triumph for CPRE. They are influential, but green belt were part of environmental thinking since before CPRE was set up. Icundell 11:49, 15 August 2005 (UTC)
This comment relates to a different POV assertion:
To 2018 overall there has been a reduction in green belt of 9900 hectares since 2014 primarily due to immigration driving increased housing demand.
This looks like brexiteer propaganda, nothing mentioning immigration on the reference 14 where 2018 distribution of green belt comes from. 46.33.137.72 ( talk) 09:25, 25 February 2021 (UTC)

It would be helpful to add when the green belt was 1st introduced - ideally in the 1st paragraph. Brandonfletcher 12:03, 11 July 2007 (UTC)
Surely this is an inappropriate title just now. The UK isn't covered within this page just ENgland and Wales, shouldthis not be redressed? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 137.195.48.90 ( talk) 12:45, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
Currently the lede states that the green belt is a policy. Surely the green belt is the land in which building is restricted, and "having a 'green belt' on which building is restricted" is the policy. Wardog ( talk) 10:41, 21 May 2012 (UTC)
I have replaced the references to Planning Policy Guidance Note (PPG) 2, which has been superseded by the National Planning Policy Framework. Although I state that the policy was formerly contained in PPG2. I have changed reference from "local councils" to "planning authorities" as in some cases, County and District tiers might be involved in the definition of green belt land in their areas, or the application of green belt policy in the determination of planning applications.
I also made some minor grammatical changes.
I am a Chartered Town Planner so please do not hesitate to ask if you have any queries or would like clarification.

Is there a map of all the green belts? The map at present, though good as far as it goes, has England and Wales only. The Scotland Bypass strikes again! Hogweard ( talk) 23:19, 31 March 2015 (UTC)
