The meeting opened with a standard declaration that no councillors had any interests to disclose. Councillor Frost moved, and Councillor Alvey seconded, that the press and public be excluded from the session while the council considered specific items of business. The motion was grounded in the Local Government Act 1972, as amended, and cited the need to protect “exempt information” relating to individuals, including any details that could reveal a person’s identity. The council resolved to exclude the press and public for the duration of that discussion.
Later in the same session, Councillor Frost again moved, this time seconded by Councillor Burnett, that the press and public be re‑admitted to the meeting. The council agreed to the motion, allowing journalists and members of the public to return to the chamber for the remainder of the proceedings. No further debate on the confidentiality issue was recorded.
The chair confirmed that there were no additional items deemed urgent for consideration. Consequently, the meeting concluded without any further business being taken.
