Summary |
|
|
1.1 |
The following decisions are sought: |
|
|
1.2 |
The decision that the tender approach outlined in the report in respect of the Supporting People Strategic Review of Homelessness Services be agreed. |
|
|
1.3 |
This report is not for publication as it contains exempt information within Appendices A and B of Part 1 of Schedule 12A of the Local Government Act 1972, being information relating to the financial or business affairs of any particular person (including the authority holding that information). Further it is considered that, in all the circumstances, the public interest in maintaining this exemption outweighs the public interest in disclosing this information. While there may be a public interest in disclosing this information, namely it will identify the value of the County Council's contracts, it is felt that on balance this is outweighed by other factors in favour of maintaining the exemption, namely these contracts are subject to confidential third party financial and other negotiations and to reveal details of those negotiations would adversely affect the County Council's negotiating position in relating to these contracts. |
