The Appeals Board of Gloucestershire Council met on Monday 14 September 2026 to appoint a chairperson and hear three home to school transport appeals. The press and public were excluded from the meeting for the consideration of these appeals.

Hearing of Appeals

The Appeals Board considered three cases relating to appeals against charges for assistance with home to school transport. The meeting agenda indicated that these appeals would be heard in private session, with the press and public excluded in accordance with Section 100A of the Local Government Act 1972. This exclusion was based on the need to consider information relating to individual applications for services, financial assistance, and the financial or business affairs of particular persons. The specific outcomes of these three appeals are not detailed in the public summary minutes.

The meeting was chaired by Councillor Beki Hoyland, Leader of the Green Group. Other members present were Councillor Stuart Graham and Councillor Steve Robinson, Vice-Chair of Council. The meeting concluded at 12:30 pm.
