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 item of business on the
grounds that it involves 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
item 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 case, the public interest in maintaining the exemption outweighed that
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 Section 100A (4) of the Local Government Act 1972 because it
was likely that, in view of the nature of the business, exempt information
would be disclosed, being information defined in Section 100 (1) and paragraph
3 of Schedule 12A of the Local Government Act 1972. |
