Explanation of anticipated restriction:
The attached Appendix 1 is NOT FOR PUBLICATION in accordance with paragraph 3 of Schedule 12A of Part 1 of the Local Government Act 1972 in that it contains commercially sensitive information relating to the managed ICT contract and third party contractors. The public interest test has been applied to the information contained within the exempt appendix and it is considered that the need to retain the information as exempt outweighs the public interest in disclosing it as it could prejudice the Council's position in any future procurement of such services. There is also a requirement on the Council to maintain the confidentiality of the contractual details between Serco and its sub-contractors.
