In respect of site allocations I propose that these be reviewed on a five yearly basis to minimise the risk of surplus Green Belt releases being included.
If that were the case the Council could not show exceptional circumstances at present for Green Belt site allocations. After the first five years it may be that the Council could show exceptional circumstances by reference to changes in housing growth predictions, but precious Green Belt land would not be lost to the District any sooner than absolutely necessary.
