SCHEDULE 12A OF THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT ACT 1972 AND THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT (ACCESS TO INFORMATION) ACT 1985 PART II In
this case the Board has a discretion to exclude the press and public and, in
view of the nature of the business to be transacted, it is RECOMMENDED
that under Section 100A(4) of the Local Government Act 1972, having been
satisfied that in all the circumstances of the case the public interest in
maintaining the exemption outweighs the public interest in disclosing the
information, the press and public be excluded from the meeting for the
following items of business on the grounds that they involve the likely
disclosure of exempt information as defined in paragraph 3 of Part 1 of
Schedule 12A to the Act. Minutes: The Committee considered: (1)
Whether Members of the press and public should
be excluded from the meeting of the Board during consideration of the following
items of business in accordance with Sub-Section 4 of Section 100A of the Local
government Act 1972 because it was likely that, in view of the nature of the
business to be considered, exempt information would be disclosed, being
information defined in Section 100 (1) and paragraph 3 of Schedule 12A of the
Local Government Act 1972; and (2)
Whether the disclosure of information was in
the public interest, whether any relevant exemptions were applicable and
whether, when applying the public interest test and exemptions, the public
interest in maintaining the exemption outweighed that in disclosing the
information. RESOLVED:
That as, in all the circumstances of the following item only of the Committee
Agenda, the public interest in
maintaining the exemption outweighs the public interest in disclosing the
information, members of the press and public be excluded from the meeting
during consideration of the following items of business in accordance with
Sub-Section 4 of Section 100A of the Local Government Act 1972 because it was
likely that, in view of the nature of the business, exempt information would be
