Borough Council is the main policy making body of the Authority chaired by the Mayor. The Council is made up of all sixty-two Councillors. The Council is responsible for the appointment of members to its committees including the Overview and Scrutiny Committee, the Standards Committee and the Planning Committee, and most sub-committees. The Council agrees the Council Tax, approves the policy and budget framework for Hounslow and also appoints to formal positions such as the Mayor. In addition, the Council has a ceremonial role such as honouring people by making them freemen of the borough. The Council meets approximately every month.
