About

All of Camden’s 55 Councillors meet together at full Council which decides on Camden's overall policies and budget.

Full Council considers some of the most important matters, including setting the budget, agreeing the Council tax and approving some of the Council’s main policies. The Council also approves the Constitution. Council has responsibility for a variety of functions – called non-executive functions - but does not carry out all of these itself – some functions are delegated to Committees and Sub-Committees of the Council. Further detail of full Council, its functions and delegations to Committees and Sub-Committees can be found in the Constitution.

After decisions are taken by full Council, officers carry out the work to deliver the different services that the Council is responsible for.

The Council, at its annual meeting each May, elects a Mayor for the coming year. The Mayor chairs full Council meetings and undertakes a number of civic and ceremonial engagements.

At its first meeting after the Council elections, the Council appoints the Leader of the Council. The Leader’s term is 4 years and he or she appoints the Cabinet annually. The Council also decides on the size and membership of all the Council’s committees.

The Council meets around seven times a year and all meetings are held in the Crowndale Centre and are open to the public to attend. If you would like to attend a meeting of full Council, details of meeting dates can be found on the Decision Making in Camden webpages. Details of how to make a request to address a Council meeting (known as making a deputation) can be found here.

All meetings of the full Council are streamed live on the Council’s website and are available to watch for a year after the meeting. If you wish to watch a webcast of one of the Council meetings, please visit our webcast webpage.
