Summary

The Personnel Committee - Member Appointment Panel of Kent Council met on Wednesday 25 June 2025 to discuss a number of items. These included a motion to exclude the press and public from part of the meeting, and an update from the Corporate Director of Finance.

Exclusion of Press and Public

The committee was scheduled to consider a motion to exclude the press and public from the meeting during a discussion of the Corporate Director of Finance Update. The reason cited for this was that it involved:

the likely disclosure of exempt information as defined in paragraph 1 of part 1 of Schedule 12A of the Act.

This paragraph of Schedule 12A of the Local Government Act 19721 relates to information about individuals.

Corporate Director of Finance Update

The agenda for the meeting of the Personnel Committee - Member Appointment Panel included an update from the Corporate Director of Finance. This item was marked as exempt, meaning that the press and public were likely to be excluded from the meeting during its discussion.


  1. The Local Government Act 1972 is legislation that defines the structure and responsibilities of local governments in England and Wales.
