Cemetery Burial Capacity
To consider the report of the Team Manager
Leisure and Street Scene.
Minutes:
Having regard to the views expressed by the Proper Officer regarding the public interest test, that on balance the public interest in maintaining the exemption outweighed the public interest in disclosing the information and that the report should be exempt.
RESOLVED that the public be excluded whilst this item of business is transacted as it is likely there would be a disclosure of exempt information as defined in Paragraph 14, Schedule 12A of the Local Government Act, 1972 (as amended).
Consideration was given to the report of the Team Manager (Leisure & Street Scene).
The Executive Member Environment presented the report which was to establish a medium to long term approach to cemetery provision in Blaenau Gwent.
RESOLVED that the report which contained information relating to the financial/business affairs of persons other than the Authority be accepted and option 2, namely that a more detailed feasibility appraisal including costs and land options at cemeteries with limited burial capacity be undertaken. This relates to cemeteries with identified capacity less than 20 years.
