There is an exempt appendix which is not for publication in accordance with paragraph (s) 3 of Schedule 12A of Part 1 of the Local Government Act 1972 in that it contains information relating to the financial affairs of third parties. The public interest test has been applied to the information contained within the exempt annex and it is considered that the need to retain the information as exempt outweighs the public interest in disclosing it as to do so would disclose commercially sensitive information about the third-party partners, Nene Park Trust and Peterborough College.
