The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, how many dwellings were built on green belt land in each year since 1997.
Answered by Matthew Pennycook
The Department does not collect or publish the requested dataabsolute numbers of dwellings built on Green Belt land.
The proportions of new residential addresses that were created on Green Belt land in each year from 2013-14 to 2021-22 are published here. Figures for 1989 to 2011 are published here. Figures for 2022-23 and more recent years will be published in due course.
