Meeting dates are listed on our committee meetings calendar. You can watch committee meetings online as they happen, including full Council meetings, via our committee meeting webcasts. To watch past meetings, go to our committee recordings page.

The Cabinet of portfolio holders is responsible for:

publishing a forward plan that gives at least 28 days notice about the key decisions it will take
making most of the council's main budget and policy decisions
recommending the budget and important policies for the council to agree on
deciding certain policies
carrying out important plans and strategies

Members of the Cabinet and their portfolios will be published here after the meeting of Annual Council at the end of May 2024.
