Understanding Your Local Government

Standards Committee

The Standards Committee plays a crucial role in maintaining the integrity of the council. They enforce the Code of Conduct, which is a set of guidelines that councillors must follow to ensure they act ethically and with transparency. This committee can investigate complaints, hold hearings, and impose sanctions if necessary.

Licensing, Environment & Safety Sub-Committee A

This sub-committee handles a wide range of issues that directly affect day-to-day life in Stockport. Licensing matters can include everything from pubs and restaurants to taxi services. Environmental health covers areas like noise complaints, waste management, and food safety. Public safety issues might involve the regulation of events, ensuring they comply with safety standards to protect attendees.

Cabinet

The Cabinet is akin to the executive branch of the local government. Led by the council leader, the Cabinet members are responsible for specific portfolios such as finance, education, housing, or transport. They make decisions on significant projects and policies that shape the future of Stockport, such as urban development plans, budget distribution, and strategic initiatives.

ONE Stockport Health & Care Locality Board

This board represents a collaborative effort between the council, NHS, and other health and social care providers. Their goal is to create a seamless service experience for residents, ensuring that health and social care services are well-coordinated. This can involve everything from hospital care to community health programs and social services.
