HC Deb 28 March 1991 vol 188 c489W
Mr. Barry Jones

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales when he proposes to publish a green belt Bill; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Nicholas Bennett

Green belts are established through development plans. The Assembly of Welsh Counties has accepted my invitation to look at the role green belts might play in the planning and development of Wales, as part of the review of strategic planning guidance. I expect to receive a report from the assembly later in the spring, which will inform my consideration of the need to issue further advice on the subject.
