Note:  Public Excluded Sessions
Sometimes the Board needs to discuss matters that can’t be considered in a public meeting. When this happens, the Board may pass a resolution to exclude the public from part of the meeting.   This is done under section 48(1) of the Local Government Official Information and Meetings Act 1987 (LGOIMA)   The Board will only exclude the public when there is a good reason for doing so, for example where sensitive or confidential information needs to be protected.  Examples:  Staffing or employment matters (to protect people’s privacy), confidential or legally sensitive information, other matters where the law allows information to be withheld.
