Summary

Open Council Network is an independent organisation. We report on Leicester and are not the council. About us

The Employees Committee (Appeals) of Leicester Council was scheduled to convene on Monday 23 March 2026. The primary item on the agenda was an appeal against dismissal, with both the appellant's and management's statements of case to be considered.

Appeal Against Dismissal

The committee was scheduled to review an appeal against a dismissal. The report pack indicated that both the Appellant's Statement of Case and the Management's Statement of Case were provided to the committee members. Additionally, a collection of background and general information relevant to the appeal was also made available. The committee was recommended to consider this item in a private session, excluding the press and public, due to the likely disclosure of exempt information relating to an individual. This exclusion was based on Section 100A(4) of the Local Government Act 1972, where the public interest in maintaining the information as exempt was considered to outweigh the public interest in its disclosure.
