Councillor Amarjit Jammu

Amarjit Jammu's council service across 2024 and 2025 reveals a consistent focus on budgetary responsibility, resident welfare, and support for vulnerable populations, with a notable increase in specific engagement and declarations of interest in the most recent year, 2025.

In 2024, Jammu demonstrated a strong commitment to fiscal prudence, voting in favor of the 2024-25 Budget Strategy in both March and April. His dedication to supporting those in need was a prominent theme, as he actively questioned councillors regarding the Household Support Fund for low-income households and strategies for assisting homeless families. Jammu also took on significant leadership roles, chairing the Licensing Sub-Committee in February and April, and serving as Vice Chair of the Civic Honours Committee and the Licensing Committee in May. He was also a member of the Licensing Panel and the Appeals Panel (Pools).

The most recent year, 2025, saw Jammu continue his engagement with budgetary matters, ultimately supporting the 2025/26 Budget Strategy report despite an initial vote against an amendment. His commitment to local economic prosperity was highlighted in July when he specifically inquired about the council's plans for creating well-paid jobs for Ealing residents. Jammu also demonstrated a clear stance on procedural matters, voting against the Opposition Group Motion for Debate in both July and October, while supporting the adoption of the new petitions scheme in October. A significant development in 2025 was his declaration of interest in November at the Children's Services Scrutiny Panel, where he stated,

Cllr Jammu declared that she has a grandchild who receives funding from Ealing Council. She was a school governor and sits on a committee for children with SEND.

This declaration underscores a personal connection to the council's work in children's services and special educational needs and disabilities (SEND), suggesting a deepening of his involvement in areas impacting families. While his attendance at certain meetings in January and May of 2025 was noted, his actions and statements in those instances were not specifically recorded, indicating a more focused engagement on specific policy and budgetary issues throughout the year.

Overall, Jammu's priorities appear to have evolved to include a more direct and personal engagement with issues affecting children and families, alongside his continued dedication to sound financial management and support for vulnerable residents. His consistent participation in budgetary discussions and his proactive questioning on employment and support services demonstrate a pattern of active and engaged council service.
