About

The Cabinet is Caerphilly Council's executive decision-making body, responsible for developing and implementing council policy. It comprises the Leader, Deputy Leader, and eight Cabinet members, each overseeing a specific portfolio area.

The Cabinet drives forward its work programme and makes key policy decisions, though major issues like budget setting are reserved for the Full Council. Its progress is monitored by Scrutiny Committees, and its performance is assessed annually. The system aims to speed up decision-making while maintaining transparency.
