I think it is ridiculous to believe a portion of our Greenbelt is going to be taken for houses. The land was set aside in 2005 as a PERMANENT hold against development. I just didn't realize permanent in reality only means about 17 years. The Premier says that he "plans" to replace this land with more land than he is trying to take. I'm really not sure where he plans to get this land from and if he really is genuine in his plan to replace the land then have it set aside now, don't plan for the future, we all know that means there is no plan to replace anything. It will come up later when we complain and all he will say is that he PLANNED to do it, but things happen and now he can't. Unless the greater portion of land he promises is set aside first I hope he will not be able to take this land away. Of course if it doesn't work out for him he can always throw a hissy fit and evoke the notwithstanding clause now that he knows how to use it.
