	Green Belt (UK) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In UK city planning, the Green Belt is a concept for controlling metropolitan growth introduced around London, England by minister of housing Duncan Sandys via a Government Circular.
		The government issues planning guidance [[1]] for the green belts defined by local authorities in England and Wales.
		The introduction of green belts was the culmination of over 50 years of environmentalist pressure with roots in the Garden Cities Movement and widespread academic interest in combating urban sprawl and ribbon development, as well as pressure from campaign groups such as the Campaign to Protect Rural England (CPRE).
