Senior Officer Appointments

The information contained in the report is exempt in that it falls within the following prescribed category:

 

1       Information relating to any individual

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

 

It is considered that in this case the public interest in maintaining the exemption outweighs the public interest in disclosing the information, in that such disclosure would distort the proper process of free negotiations between the authority with another party for the purposes described and would prejudice the position of the authority in those negotiations and other negotiations of a similar nature in future.
