Executive

Full details of Executive meetings can be found in the decision making section. 

Role of the Executive

The Executive makes decisions in line with the Council’s overall policies and budget. When major decisions are to be discussed or made, these are published in the Executive’s Forward Plan. 

If the Executive wishes to make a decision which is outside the budget or policy framework, this must be referred to the full Council meeting as a whole to decide.

If those major decisions are to be discussed with Council officers at a meeting of the Executive, this will generally be open to the press and public to attend, except where personal or confidential matters are being discussed.

Meetings

Dates, times and venues of Executive meetings can be found in the decision making section.

Full membership details of the Executive can be found in the decision making section.

• the whole executive, meeting together (also known as the Cabinet)

• an individual member of the executive (leader or cabinet member) acting with a senior member of staff known as a Green Decision.
