An update on a potential new cinema for Coalville will be given next week at a North West Leicestershire District Council meeting - but the details will be behind closed doors.

Wednesday's scheduled meeting of the council's Community Scrutiny Committee will discuss the matter.

It is listed on the agenda for the June 29 meeting as 'A Cinema for Coalville - Update'.

This will be a report report from the council's Head of Property and Regeneration.

However, it also says that the press and public will be excluded at that point.

The reason given is that there will be 'Information relating to the financial or business affairs of any particular person (including the authority holding that information)'.

North West Leicestershire District Council leader Cllr Richard Blunt said last month that he was 'optimistic' that a cinema would be built in Coalville as 'demand is there'.

But he also made it clear that it would not be happening this year.

Councillors will be updated next week - suggesting that some progress has been made - possibly with a view to revealing more at next month's meeting of the council Cabinet.

But the details will not be made public at the meeting.

Cllr Blunt told last month's Full Council meeting: "We are in detailed conversations with people who can offer cinemas in North West Leicestershire.

"They are highly commercially sensitive, but I am optimistic that somebody will step forward with proposals.

"But until they put them to us, and it goes to Cabinet, that's the time the papers will be released and you'll know the details.

"Unfortunately, until then, I can tell you that conversations are ongoing.

"if there were nothing happening at all, and all interested parties had walked away, I would announce that, regardless of any questions,"
