The Regulation Committee Appeal Panel (Transport) of Kent Council was scheduled to consider five appeals as part of its meeting on Tuesday 21 July 2026. The panel's agenda indicated that these matters would be discussed in private session.

Matters for Decision

The primary focus of the meeting was scheduled to be the consideration of five separate appeals, listed as Appeal 1 through Appeal 5. The report pack provided to the panel members contained detailed information for each of these appeals, with the documentation for each ranging from 26 pages for Appeal 1 to 136 pages for Appeal 5. The agenda documents indicate that these items were scheduled for decision by the panel.

The agenda also noted that the panel would consider a motion to exclude the press and public from the meeting. This was to be done under Section 100A of the Local Government Act 1972, on the grounds that the business to be discussed involved the likely disclosure of exempt information. This exempt information was specified as relating to any individual, or information that was likely to reveal the identity of an individual.

The meeting was scheduled to take place in the Medway Room at Sessions House, County Hall, Maidstone. The contact for the meeting was Andrew Ballard, who could be reached by telephone or email. The Deputy Chief Executive, Benjamin Watts, prepared the agenda and report pack on Monday 13 July 2026.

The attendees listed for the meeting were Colin Sefton, Wayne Chapman (Deputy Cabinet Member for Communications and Engagement), Mary Lawes, Sharon Roots, and Paul Stepto.
