§ 38. Mr. Iremongerasked the Minister of Housing and Local Government if he will state his policy with regard to the green belt in the London borough of Redbridge, and whether he intends to give planning permission for housing or industrial or other development on green belt land in the borough.
§ Mr. CrossmanI have no proposals before me for development on green belt land in Redbridge. It is my policy to preserve the approved metropolitan green belt—subject only to the review by the local planning authorities to see if any land which is of no real green belt value can be spared for housing.
