The Local Plan's own Sustainability Appraisal shows that:
• Strategic Growth Locations which are NOT in the green belt have capacity for 48,500 dwellings (Table 5.1).
• New Settlements which are NOT in the green belt have capacity for a further 6,000 dwellings (Table 6.1).

This means that it is possible to meet housing need without building on green belt land. Sufficient capacity exists at Strategic Growth Locations outside the Green Belt to meet the Local Plan dwelling requirements to 2050. Therefore, exceptional circumstances cannot be met to release green belt sites to meet the housing requirements of Warwick District and Stratford on Avon District.
