Newham has set up a Standards Committee (formerly Standards Advisory Committee - renamed Standards Committee at the Council’s Annual Council Meeting held 22nd May 2025), comprising of five independent people and four councillors. Further information is set out in Part 1 of the Council’s Constitution. The Standards Advisory Committee has a number of functions, including the consideration of any breaches of the Code of Conduct, promoting and maintaining high standards of conduct, and advising the Council on the adoption and revision of the Code of Conduct and the various Protocols included in the Constitution. Newham Council has adopted a Code of Conduct in accordance with the Localism Act 2011. The Code of Conduct applies to all Members (the Mayor and councillors) and Co-opted Members whenever they are acting in an official capacity. The aim of the Code is to assist the Council in providing excellent local government for the people of the borough by setting out the principles which Members and Co-opted Members are expected to follow. A copy of the Code of Conduct is located in Part 5.1 of the Council’s
Constitution. Further information about the Standards Advisory Committee and how to make a complaint about a Member or Co-opted Members can be found on the Council’s website.
