The purpose of the Sustainability
Cabinet Committee is to make decisions or recommendations to
Cabinet on sustainability issues that are not the sole
responsibility of other Cabinet members, e.g.
§
environmental management within the council itself
§
the council’s role in, and
response to, cross-cutting issues like reducing carbon emissions,
projections of a changing climate locally, improving resource
efficiency, developing sustainable energy.
The Sustainability
Cabinet Committee is made up of the Leader of the Council, the
Cabinet Members for Housing and Central Services. The Lead
Councillor for Sustainability is invited to attend each meeting
along with spokespeople from all opposition groups.
