Summary

Here's a summary of the items scheduled for discussion at the Carmarthenshire Council's Members Home to School Transport Appeals Panel meeting. The panel, including Councillor Edward Thomas, Cabinet Member for Transport, Waste and Infrastructure, and Councillor Glynog Davies, Cabinet Member for Education & Welsh Language, was scheduled to convene to address an appeal regarding school transport. Due to the confidential nature of the appeal, the public was likely to be excluded from that portion of the meeting.

School Transport Appeal

The main item on the agenda was to consider an appeal by applicant M.W. against a decision of the authority for the non-provision of free school transport. The report pack for the meeting, the Public reports pack, notes that the report relating to this item is not for publication as it contains exempt information, as defined in paragraph 12 of Part 4 of Schedule 12A to the Local Government Act 19721, as amended by the Local Government (Access to Information) (Variation) (Wales) Order 2007.

If following the application of the public interest test the panel resolves pursuant to the Act to consider this item in private, the public will be excluded from the meeting during such consideration.
