EAST SUSSEX COUNTY COUNCIL
Notice under The Local Authorities (Executive Arrangements) (Meetings and Access to Information) (England) Regulations 2012
On the 14 March 2024 County Council intends to hold a meeting of the Lead Member for Strategic Management and Economic Development at which the following item will be considered: Levelling Up Partnership - Rother and Hastings.
The purpose of the item is: To consider East Sussex County Council entering into legal agreements for Rother and Hastings Levelling Up Partnership projects.
Under the requirements of Regulation 9 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 key decision identified within the scope of these regulations. It is considered that item referred to above would be a key decision and for the reasons of urgency outlined below, compliance is considered impracticable, and an exception to Regulation 9 is therefore sought under Regulation 10 of the above Regulations. It is considered impracticable to comply with the requirements of The Local Authorities (Executive Arrangements) (Meetings and Access to Information) (England) Regulations 2012 because: the overall programme and individual project delivery are time critical and any delay would impact on achieving this delivery.
Accordingly a copy of this notice shall be available pursuant to Regulation 5(6) for at least 5 clear days prior to 14 March 2024.
Date: 29 February 2024
