I am completely against this proposal. This proposal makes a mockery of the Greenbelt plan. The Greenbelt is meant to be kept intact and continuous; it cannot be parsed and sold. The main argument for amending the Plan is baseless. A lack of available land is not the reason there is a housing shortage--there are a multitude of factors (policy, economics, bylaws) that have contributed to this housing crisis. Attributing the shortage simply to a lack of land is an easy way to get a political "win" by then "solving" the problem. But nobody (except for developers) wins if this proposal goes through. Preserving our natural environment is so crucial, and I truly can't believe that we're still stripping away environmental protections as if we're not facing life-altering climate change.
