EXCLUSION OF PRESS AND PUBLIC The Chairman shall propose that the press and public be excluded from the meeting during the discussion on the following items due to the likely disclosure of exempt information as defined in paragraph 12, Part 4, Schedule 12A of the Local Government Act 1972. This paragraph should apply because the report contains information regarding individuals and the individuals in question are
entitled to privacy and there is no overriding
public interest that requires the disclosure of personal information relating to those individuals, nor their identities.
Consequently, the public interest in maintaining
the exemption outweighs the
public interest in disclosing the information. Minutes: RESOLVED to exclude the press and public from the meeting during the discussion on the following item due to the likely disclosure of exempt information as defined in paragraph 12, Section 4, Schedule 12A, Local Government
Act 1972. This paragraph is relevant as the report contains information about specific individuals who have the right to privacy. There is no public
interest that calls for disclosing
personal information about these individuals.
Consequently, the public interest in maintaining
the exemption outweighs the
public interest in disclosing the information. |
