The Housing and Environment Scrutiny Panel is scheduled to meet on Thursday 17 September 2026. The meeting's agenda includes discussions on the panel's process and ways of working, as well as developing its terms of reference.

Panel Process and Ways of Working

The panel is set to consider its process and how it operates. This discussion will likely involve reviewing the effectiveness of current procedures and exploring potential improvements to enhance the panel's scrutiny functions.

Developing Terms of Reference

A key item on the agenda is the development of the panel's terms of reference. This will involve defining the scope of the panel's remit, its objectives, and the specific areas of housing and the environment it will scrutinise. This is an opportunity for the panel to shape its future work programme and ensure it aligns with the council's priorities and residents' needs.

The meeting will be chaired by Councillor Pamila Rodrigues, with other members including Councillors Gurbachan Athwal, Jasmine Deol, Katherine Dunne, Adesh Farmahan, Vivek Ganachari, Linden Grigg, Johan Lindsten, and Aysha Tariq. Simon Hayes is listed as a contact for further information regarding the agenda.

The meeting is scheduled to take place in Rooms 6:08 & 6:09 on the 6th Floor of Hounslow House. Members of the public are permitted to record or report on the meeting, subject to the council's protocol, which is available on the Council's website.

The panel will also review the minutes from its previous meeting held on 18 March 2025. The report pack for this upcoming meeting can be found at Public reports pack Thursday 17-Sep-2026 19.00 Housing and Environment Scrutiny Panel.pdf.
