Yes. That is an intention of the law. It was to get more of the homeless population out of the green belts. Those mega-greenbelt encampments tended to be *extremely* dangerous for the people living in them and extremely difficult for social services to reach them. It was also ecologically terrible as the greenbelts are often protected watersheds.
