Agenda item

Review of Exempt Items

To review those items or parts thereof which can be released as information available to the public.

Minutes:

The Executive reviewed the reports which had been considered at the meeting following the exclusion of members of the press and public, as it involved the likely disclosure of exempt information.

 

Members indicated a desire to be as transparent as possible in relation to the publication of minutes of the Executive Working Groups while at the same time recognising that some information, due to its commercial nature, needed to remain exempt at this time.  Members were advised that in those instances where the Working Group notes were to remain exempt, they would be reviewed by the Chief Executive and Monitoring Officer every six months, with a view to making as much information available to the public as soon as possible.

 

RESOLVED in relation to the Executive Working Group notes presented to the meeting:

 

                           (i)       the Camberley Town Centre Working Group notes to be remain exempt for the present time;

                         (ii)      the Climate Change Working Group notes to be made public;

                        (iv)      the Local Plan Working Group notes to remain exempt for the present time;
