To move that in accordance with the Council’s Constitution, specifically the Access to Information Procedure Rules contained within the Constitution, the press and public be excluded from the meeting in respect of any consideration of the exempt appendix to the following item.

Appendix 1 of this report contains information deemed to be exempt from general publication based on Category 3 of Paragraph 10.4 of the Council’s Access to Information Procedure Rules. This includes details of commercial terms and standings, which if disclosed could put the Council or other parties at a commercial disadvantage. It is not in the public interest to disclose this information as the report contains confidential and commercially sensitive information in relation to one of the Council’s suppliers. It would prejudice the Council’s ability to operate in a commercial environment and obtain best value in contract negotiations.

This report is not for publication by virtue of category 5 (Legal Proceedings) of paragraph 10.4 of the Council’s Access to Information procedure Rules as contained in the Council’s Constitution. It is not in the public interest to disclose this information because the matter is subject to ongoing legal proceedings and disclosure of the Council’s legal advice and position would adversely impact the successful conduct of those proceedings and breach Legal Professional Privilege.
