Digital Portfolio Board
Has an Equality Analysis been carried out and if so the result of this Assessment?: No
What supporting documents or other information will be available?: A restricted appendix which contains information which relates to the Council’s budgeting for this project and financial affairs which if known by potential bidders may influence the bidders decisions on pricing and impair the Council’s ability to obtain Best Value. This constitutes exempt information under the law. The fact that it is likely that the Council’s commercial interests might be prejudiced as a result of the release of the information means that the public interest in maintaining the exemption outweighs the public interest in knowing the information.
