Notice of proposed decision first published: 16/05/2016

Anticipated restriction: Part exempt  - View reasons

Explanation of anticipated restriction:
The terms agreed for the disposal are set in in the Heads of Terms which are attached as a private appendix to the report as the information is commercially sensitive and includes information about a third party. It is considered that disclosure of the information could prejudice negotiations regarding the disposal of the land and the Council obtaining best consideration. The public interest in maintaining the exemption, which would protect the interests of the Council, outweighs the public interest in disclosing the information and providing greater openness in the Council's decision making.
