About

The Cabinet is appointed by the Council following recommendations from the Councillor elected as Leader of the Council.

 

The Leader and the Cabinet are responsible for delivering and implementing the budget and policies decided by the full Council as part of the Budget and Policy Framework. As such, the Cabinet determines many of the day-to-day operational matters within the Council, with the exception of certain matters which are reserved by law to the Council or delegated to other Committees (e.g. planning, licensing, and personnel).

 

The different roles in the Cabinet are detailed in Part 3.2 Portfolio Holder Responsibilities of the Council Constitution.

 

Meetings of the Cabinet are broadcast on the Council’s website and can be viewed live and for a period of six months after the meeting.

 

Prior to May 2023 the Cabinet was known as the Executive.  You can access past papers through the Executive archive.

 

The Leader has also appointed a number of Member Champions.  These are Councillors chosen for their special interest and skills and passion to help advocate on specific areas.  You can read more on our Member Champions page.
