Summary

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

The Development Control Committee of Bromley Council met on Monday 18 May 2026. The meeting was scheduled to discuss the proportionality of plans sub-committees, membership of sub-committees, and the appointment of chairmen and vice-chairmen.

Proportionality of Plans Sub-Committees

The committee was scheduled to consider the proportionality of its plans sub-committees. This involves reviewing how the representation of different political groups on these sub-committees reflects their overall numbers on the main committee. The aim is to ensure fair representation and balance in decision-making processes.

Membership of Sub-Committees

A key item on the agenda was the membership of the various sub-committees. This would have involved discussing and potentially agreeing on which councillors would serve on each sub-committee for the upcoming period.

Appointment of Chairmen and Vice-Chairmen

The meeting was also scheduled to address the appointment of chairmen and vice-chairmen for the sub-committees. This is a standard procedure to ensure that each sub-committee has designated leadership to oversee its meetings and operations.
