To resolve that under Section 100(A)(4) of the Local Government Act 1972, the public be excluded from the meeting during consideration of the following item of business on the grounds that it involves the likely disclosure of exempt information as defined in Part 1 of Schedule 12A of the Act.

Determined.

To consider a proposal of enforcement action.

Exempt information under Part 1 of Schedule 12A of the Local Government Act 1972, as amended by the Local Government (access to Information)(variation) Order 2006, as it contains details which reveal (i) information in respect of which a claim to legal professional privilege could be maintained in legal proceedings (ii) that the authority proposes to (a) give under any enactment a notice under or by virtue of which requirements are imposed on a person or (b) make an order or direction under any enactment (iii) information relating to any action taken or to be taken in connection with the prevention, investigation or prosecution of crime.

The public interest in maintaining the exemption which would protect the Council outweighs the public interest in disclosing the information and providing greater openness in the Council’s decision making.

Contact: Kevin Walton, Senior Planner

That enforcement action as set out in option 5 of the submitted report be pursued.
