ALT Letter from local government minister Simon Hoare MP - "Withholding details of councillors’ sensitive interests and home addresses. In response to recent concerns from elected members about intimidation in public life, I want to ensure that all councillors and elected mayors are aware of the sensitive provisions in Section 32 of the Localism Act 2011. The sensitive interests’ provisions provide for details about a registered interest to be excluded from versions of the Register of Interests available for public inspection (or published online) where a member and monitoring officer agree that the disclosure of that interest could lead to violence or intimidation of them or their family. They provide for members to disclose that they have an interest but for the details to be withheld from the public register."
