EAST SUSSEX COUNTY
COUNCIL
Notice under The Local Authorities (Executive Arrangements) (Meetings and Access to Information) (England) Regulations 2012
On 20 October 2021 the County Council intends to hold a meeting of the Lead Member for Strategic Management and Economic Development which will be Fully exempt.
The reason for this is the report contains exempt information as specified in paragraph 3 of Part 1 of the Local Government Act 1972 (as amended) namely information relating to the financial or business affairs of any particular person (including the authority holding that information).
Under the requirements of Regulation 5(2) of The Local Authorities (Executive Arrangements) (Meetings and Access to Information) (England) Regulations 2012 the Council is required to give 28 days notice of a private meeting identified within the scope of these Regulations.
The item (Sea Change Sussex - grant agreements) is considered urgent and cannot be deferred as any agreements need to completed promptly.
For this reason compliance is considered impracticable, and an exception to Regulation 5(2) is therefore sought under Regulation 5(6) of the above Regulations.
Date: 8 October 2021
