Report of the Head of Leisure and Parks and the Head of Corporate Assets attached.

The report recommends the award of a lease for the Barton Pavilion to the Phoenix Sports Association.  There is a not for publication Appendix to the report.

The Head of City leisure and the Head of Corporate assets submitted a report (previously circulated, now appended) concerning the granting of the lease at Barton Pavilion to the Phoenix Sports Association.

Having considered the contents of the report, Councillor Ed Turner resolved to approve the allocation of Barton Pavilion and the granting of a lease to the Phoenix Sports Association on the terms outlined in the report, and otherwise on terms and conditions approved by the Head of Corporate Assets.

If the Board member wishes to exclude the press and the public from the meeting during consideration of any of the items on the exempt from publication part of the agenda, it will be necessary for the Board member to pass a resolution in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 21(1)(b) of the Local Authorities (Executive Arrangements) (Access to Information) (England) Regulations 2000 on the grounds that their presence could involve the likely disclosure of exempt information as described in specific paragraphs of Schedule I2A of the Local Government Act 1972.

The Board member may maintain the exemption if and so long as, in all the circumstances of the case, the public interest in maintaining the exemption outweighs the public interest in disclosing the information.

None.
