Issue - meetings

To note an update of the current status of Council projects.

Appendix 4 to this report contains exempt information within the meaning of Part 1 of Schedule 12A to the Local Government Act 1972, as amended by the Local Government (Access to Information) Act 1985 and by the Local Government (Access to information) (Variation) Order 2006:

Paragraph 3 – Information relating to the financial or business affairs of any particular person (including the authority holding that information) and in all the circumstances of the case, the public interest in maintaining the exemption outweighs the public interest in disclosing the information because, disclosure to the public would prejudice the financial position of the authority.

The Committee noted that improvements to how the RAG ratings were presented had been made and thanked Cllr Noble and officers for their work on this.

The Committee expressed concern about the lack of confidential information on development schemes provided on this occasion and noted that as an Extraordinary Council meeting was to be held two days later to discuss development projects, Cabinet had considered that all councillors had had access to the information and an opportunity to comment on it at that meeting, and therefore it made sense to avoid having duplicate discussions.

Members raised a number of queries on the Sunbury leisure centre, which officers responded to or agreed to look into and provide a written answer.

The Committee agreed to note the update.
