20 MINUTES - Resolved - That the minutes of the
meeting of the committee held on 13December 2006 be approved as a
correct record.
21 EXCLUSION OF THE PUBLIC - Resolved - That
the public be excluded from the meeting for consideration of the
following item (minute 22 refers) on the grounds that it involves
the likely disclosure of exempt information as defined in
paragraphs 3 and 4 of Part 1 of Schedule 12A of the Local
Government Act 1972.
22 HOUSING STOCK TRANSFER - FINANCIAL, PROPERTY AND
CONTRACTUAL ISSUES - The Chief Executive referred to a
detailed report to be considered by the full council at its meeting
on 17 January entitled "Transfer of Entire Housing Stock and
Related Assets to North Lincolnshire Homes" which had been
circulated on 9 January, 2007. This report would deal with the full
range of issues in relation to the transfer of the council's
housing stock to North Lincolnshire Homes. Appendix 1 to that
report contained details of a commercially sensitive nature which
was classed as exempt information within the Access to Information
Regulations. It had not therefore been circulated to members of the
public.
The Chief Executive updated members of the committee on the
information contained within that appendix. This information
included the framework for the main financial terms which had so
far been agreed. It also referred to B Line Industries, property
matters and warranties for redevelopment.
Both members and officers commented in detail on some of the
issues reported on by the Chief Executive.
Resolved - That the report be noted.
