HEOL WALLASEY LEASEHOLD SERVICE CHARGE Minutes: Following the application of the public interest test it was RESOLVED pursuant to the Act referred to in minute no. 3 above not to publicise the content of the report as it contained exempt information relating to the financial or business affairs of any particular person (including the Authority holding that information) (Paragraph 14 of Part 4 of Schedule 12A to the Act) and information in respect of which a claim to legal professional privilege could be maintained in legal proceedings (Paragraph 16 of Part 4 of Schedule 12A to the Act).
The public interest test in this matter related to the fact that by disclosing the information contained within this report as disclosure would have the potential to have a disproportionate effect upon the individuals concerned and would not be necessary for any of the purposes specified in Schedule 2 of the Data Protection Act 1998. Furthermore, the report contained legally privileged information which, if disclosed would undermine the ability of the Council to take or defend legal action in relation to leasehold service charges, thereby harming the public purse.
The Executive Board Members for Resources and Housing considered a report which provided background information on the position regarding building works at Heol Wallasey and recovery of costs from leaseholders.
The Executive Board Members noted that the matter of the leasehold charges had not been resolved.
The report outlined three options and recommended that the Executive Board Members consider the most appropriate course of action.
UNANIMOUSLY RESOLVED that option 2, as set out in the report be agreed and actioned.
