The Personnel Appeals Panel of Harrow Council met on Wednesday 14 January 2026 to hear a disciplinary appeal. The panel unanimously decided to uphold the appeal, reinstating the appellant with a final written warning.

Disciplinary Appeal

The Personnel Appeals Panel considered a disciplinary appeal, reviewing both verbal and written evidence from the appellant and management. The panel unanimously resolved to uphold the appeal. This decision means the appellant will be reinstated to their position, with the disciplinary action reduced to a final written warning. The meeting was held at the Harrow Arts Centre and was chaired by Councillor Paul Osborn. The other councillors present were Councillor Christopher Baxter and Councillor Krishna Suresh. The proceedings involved the exclusion of the press and public due to the confidential nature of the information being discussed, as permitted under paragraph 1 of Part I of Schedule 12A to the Local Government Act 19721.


  1. Schedule 12A of the Local Government Act 1972 outlines the categories of information that can lead to the exclusion of the public from council meetings. Paragraph 1 specifically relates to information relating to any individual.
