The confidentiality register.
Councils can consider some matters in confidence under section 90 of the Local Government Act, and must keep a public register of every confidentiality order — what was withheld, under which ground, and for how long. We index that register, and when an item is released from confidence it shows up in answers automatically.
Nothing here reveals confidential content — the register itself is the public record of what is being withheld and why.
