interest in maintaining the exemption outweighed the public interest in
disclosing the information and it was RESOLVED that in accordance with Section 100A(4) of the Local Government
Act 1972 the public be excluded from the remainder of the meeting because of
the likely disclosure to them of exempt information as identified in paragraph 12 of Part 4 of Schedule 12A of
the Local Government Act 1972. |

determined that in light of the fact that several attempts had been made to
contact the applicant and the fact that the applicant had gone through this
