The Hawick Common Good Fund Sub-Committee met on Wednesday, 4 March 2026, to discuss private business. The committee agreed to exclude the public from the meeting for the consideration of specific items due to the likely disclosure of exempt information. Following this, members approved a report concerning Volunteer Park.

Volunteer Park

The committee approved a report by Estates Surveyor, Tricia Hill, regarding Volunteer Park. The decision to exclude the public from this discussion was made under Section 50A(4) of the Local Government (Scotland) Act 1973, as it involved the likely disclosure of exempt information as defined in Paragraph 9 of Part I of Schedule 7A to the Act. The specific details of the report and the decision made concerning Volunteer Park are not publicly available due to its classification as exempt information.
