Exclusion of the Public The Proper Officer has determined in preparing these reports that by virtue of paragraph 14 of Part 4 of Schedule 12A of the Local Government Act 1972 as amended by the Local Government (Access to Information) Variation Order 2007 should apply; his view on the public interest test is that whilst he was mindful of the need to ensure the transparency and accountability of a public authority in respect of decisions taken by them in relation to the spending of public money, regard also has to be made to any relevant prejudice which might be caused to the Council in the full context of any disclosure. It is considered in this instance that maintaining the exemption outweighs the public interest in disclosing the information in that the Council could be financially prejudiced if this report was not so exempt. Members are asked to consider this factor when determining the public interest test, which they must decide when considering excluding the public from this part of the meeting. 8.
