Exempt Information - Possible Exclusion of the Press and Public

 

1)  To highlight reports or appendices which:

 

a)  officers have identified as containing exempt information, and where officers consider that the public interest in maintaining the exemption outweighs the public interest in disclosing the information, for the reasons outlined in the report.

 

b)  To consider whether or not to accept the officers recommendation in respect of the above information.

 

c)  If so, to formally pass the following resolution:-

 

  RESOLVED – That the press and public be excluded from the meeting during consideration of those parts of the agenda designated as containing exempt information on the grounds that it is likely, in view of the nature of the business to be transacted or the nature of the proceedings, that if members of the press and public were present there would be disclosure to them of exempt information

 

2) To note that under the Licensing Procedure rules, the press and the public will be excluded from that part of the hearing where Members will deliberate on each application  as it is in the public interest to allow the Members to have a full and frank debate on the matter before them.

Minutes:

Members being in receipt of the late submission (minute 109 above refers) noted that Appendices A C D and E of the report were marked exempt under the provisions of Access to Information Procedure Rule 10.4 (1) and Paragraph 14 of the Licensing Act 2003 (Hearings Regulations 2005). However in the circumstances it was not necessary to exclude the public from the meeting.

RESOLVED – That in the circumstances, the public be not excluded from the meeting
