EXEMPT ITEMS

Minutes:

RESOLVED:                        That the public be excluded for the duration of items PB6 and PB7 in the Agenda since it was likely that if they were present during those items there would be disclosure of exempt information as defined in Part 1 of Schedule 12A to the Local Government Act 1972 (as amended) and specified in relation to the respective items in the Agenda and since it was considered that, in all the circumstances of each case, the public interest in maintaining the exemption outweighs the public interest in disclosing the information.

Exempt Minutes

To approve the exempt part of the minutes of the meeting held on 30 April 2015 (PB6E) and to receive information arising from them.

1.            Information relating to any individual;

2.         Information which is likely to reveal the identity of an individual;

3.         Information relating to the financial or business affairs of any particular person (including the authority holding that information)

 

and since it is considered that, in all the circumstances of the case, the public interest in maintaining the exemption outweighs the public interest in disclosing the information, in that such disclosure would infringe the rights of the individual to privacy contrary to the general law and the duty of the authority to respect human rights and to comply with that law and contrary to the authority’s duties as a fair employer.
