Summary

Open Council Network is an independent organisation. We report on Havering and are not the council. About us

The Appointments Sub Committee of Havering Council is scheduled to convene on Wednesday 29 April 2026. The primary focus of the meeting will be the appointment to a key senior role within the council's adult safeguarding team.

Appointment to Assistant Director - Adults Safeguarding

A significant item on the agenda is the consideration for the appointment to the post of Assistant Director - Adults Safeguarding. The report detailing this appointment is attached to the agenda and is scheduled to be discussed. However, this report is not available to the press or the public. The meeting will also address procedural matters, including the Chair's announcement regarding emergency evacuation procedures and the receipt of any apologies for absence or announcements of substitute members. A decision will be made on whether to exclude the public from the remainder of the meeting, based on the likelihood of disclosing exempt information as defined by the Local Government Act 1972.

The attendees for this meeting include Councillor Ray Morgon (Leader of the Council), Councillor Gillian Ford (Deputy Leader of the Council and Cabinet Member for Adults and Wellbeing), Councillor Keith Darvill (Leader of the Labour Group), Councillor Viddy Persaud, Bernadette Lynch, and Barbara Nicholls. For further information about the meeting, members of the public can contact Bernadette Lynch at bernadette.lynch@havering.gov.uk.
