Subject to agreement by the Authority at agenda item 1 above, items of
business will be considered in private for the reasons noted below:
Items 8, 9, and 10 in accordance with the SPA’s Standing Orders section 20.

Circumstances in which meetings may be held in private include where:

 information relating to identified or identifiable individuals (including members of
staff) could be disclosed where there is a risk of a breach of data protection
legislation.
 public discussion of the information may prejudice any police operation or the
prosecution of offenders.
 disclosure of information could prejudice national security.
 matters to be discussed are the subject of legal proceedings (including misconduct
or disciplinary proceedings) or where the information to be discussed consists of
or includes legal advice provided to the Authority or to a third party.
 an obligation of confidentiality exists in respect of the information to be discussed.
 confidential commercial or financial information not already in the public domain
could be disclosed.
 proposals for significant organisational change, significant changes to the terms
and conditions of staff or other sensitive matters are being considered.
 discussion in public would be likely to inhibit the free and frank provision of advice
or the free and frank exchange of views for the purpose of deliberation.
 other, exceptional circumstances exist that would justify considering the matter in
private, such circumstances to be agreed by the Board and included in the minute
of the meeting
