22. | EXCLUSION OF PRESS AND PUBLIC
|
| |
| If the Panel wishes to consider the remaining item in private, it will be appropriate for a resolution to be passed in the following terms:
|
| |
| "that under Section 100A (4) of the Local Government Act 1972, the press and public be excluded from the meeting for the following item(s) of business on the grounds that it involves the likely disclosure of exempt information as defined under paragraphs 1 to 7 of Part 1 of Schedule 12A to the Act". It has been decided by the Council that in all the circumstances, the public interest in maintaining the exemption outweighs the public interest in disclosing the information.
|
| |
| If any confidential business is approved under Item 3, it will also be necessary to specify the class of exempt or confidential information in the additional item(s).
