Description[?]:
| "Now we have reached peak levels of population, and urbanisation is increasing, it is important to maintain not just the beauty of the rural areas but functionality of these areas, which are essential to eco-systems and tourism. We must enforce non-urban 'green belt zones' to achieve this."- NCPA Candidate for Environment and Tourism, Jillian Henderson Green Belt Zone allocation by region: 17,000 km in Ultran region 33,000 km in Kurmal 27,500 km in Sildar 11,000 km in Krentori 44,000 km in Gavonshire these areas will be allocated and left to naturally develop. The local council may wish to construct basic footpaths to aid visitors to these beauty spots. However no commercial building will be constructed in these areas. These rough figures are based on total area of regions in relation to total population. |

| Message | We feel that this will cost minimal amounts for such a positive outcome, as we figure Termination of the Population Growth Promotion Act will free up such money that would have gone to the cause of this problem. |
| Date | 14:40:51, May 07, 2010 CET | From | New Independence Party (PCA) | To | Debating the Green Belt Zone Policy |
| Message | Park policy is traditionally left to local governments, and so it should remain. The people of Sildar oppose. |
| Date | 21:23:00, May 07, 2010 CET | From | Democratic Party of Aloria | To | Debating the Green Belt Zone Policy |
| Message | Currently if this were to go to vote I would vote No because, We feel that parks should be left to local governments as this gives the people some power. |
| Date | 23:01:23, May 07, 2010 CET | From | NCPA | To | Debating the Green Belt Zone Policy |
| Message | The only way to assure that these park exist is to regulate them via the national government, the land will then be guaranteed as green belt, we owe this to the present people and future generations. |
| Date | 23:04:24, May 07, 2010 CET | From | New Aloria Party (NAP) | To | Debating the Green Belt Zone Policy |
| Message | We oppose because local governments understand better how to protect their parks that are local than us in Congress. |
