Summary

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

The Appeals Board of Gloucestershire Council met on Friday 16 October 2026. The board resolved that the public summary minutes from their meetings on 8 September and 14 September 2026 were agreed as a correct record, and also resolved that the exempt minutes from those same dates were agreed as a correct record.

Hearing of Appeals

The Board considered one case concerning charges for home to school transport. The details of the appeal and the decision made were heard in private session, with the press and public excluded in accordance with the Local Government Act 1972. This exclusion was due to the nature of the information discussed, which related to individual applications for services, financial assistance, and the financial affairs of particular persons.
