Mayoral Proceedings

When the Mayor is making decisions alone or in consultation with an individual cabinet member or mayoral adviser, he will make these decisions at meetings known as mayoral proceedings. These are held fortnightly at the Town Hall, East Ham, generally on Thursday morning. The Mayor has decided that the public are welcome to attend these meetings. See the Calendar for dates of meetings.

The agenda and reports are published 5 clear days before the meeting and are available on the Council website (See agendas and minutes) or at libraries, service centres and council offices or contact Kathy Howard on 020 8430 3317.

The decisions are also published, usually between 2 and 5 days of the meeting, although implementation is usually delayed for a further five days to allow for call-in. See agendas and minutes if you want to know what is being discussed at a particular meeting.

Occasionally the Mayor has to make decisions which need to be made in private. These include matters involving identifiable individuals including Council employees, commercially sensitive information and legal advice given in confidence.
