The Audit and Corporate Governance (Staff Appeals) Sub-Committee (Panel A) of Camden Council met on Wednesday 2 September 2026. The meeting was scheduled to consider an appeal against dismissal by a former employee.

Appeal Against Dismissal

The primary item scheduled for discussion was an appeal against dismissal, submitted by a former employee of the council. The Sub-Committee was to consider a report by the Director of People and Inclusion regarding the remit of the Staff Appeal Sub-Committee. This agenda item also included papers submitted by the appellant, a case summary and response to the grounds of appeal, and documentation considered at the formal meeting.

The meeting was scheduled to include a resolution to exclude the press and public from proceedings during the consideration of this item. This was on the grounds that publicity would likely lead to the disclosure of exempt information relating to a particular employee or former employee of the council, as defined by Category 1 of Schedule 12A to the Local Government Act 1972.

The Sub-Committee's terms of reference, as outlined in the agenda, include hearing and determining appeals under the Council's Disciplinary Procedure and the Absence Management Procedure.
