The Written Ministerial Statement (HCWS423) regarding Green Belt protection and intentional unauthorised development, made by my Right Hon Friend the Member for Great Yarmouth on 17 December 2015, is still a potential material consideration in a planning case, whether or not the land is within a Green Belt.
