RESOLVED – That consideration of Agenda Item 6 be deferred to later in the meeting to afford the applicant further time to attend.
Apologies for absence were submitted on behalf of Councillors David A Bithell and Andy Gallanders.
RESOLVED – That the Minutes of the Meeting held on 29 April 2024 be signed as a correct record.
Agenda Items 6 to 9: Members determined in considering these reports that Paragraph 12 should apply. Their view on the public interest test was that to make this information public would disclose personal data relating to an individual in contravention of the principles of the Data Protection Act. Because of this and since there did not appear to be an overwhelming public interest requiring the disclosure of personal data they felt that the public interest in maintaining the exemption outweighed the public interest in disclosing the information. RESOLVED - That the press and public be excluded from the Meeting during consideration of the following items of business, as it is likely that, if they were present, there would be disclosure to them of exempt information as defined in Paragraph 12 of Part 4 of Schedule 12A to the Local Government Act 1972 (as amended).
