Welcome to Colchester City Council's Committee pages.

Find out who sits on specific committees (or panels) when the next meeting is to be held, what's on the agenda and what conclusions were reached at previous meetings on these pages. Click on a meeting name to find information about meeting dates and memberships.

The Cabinet and Portfolio Holders are responsible for most day-to-day decisions while the Panels (still often referred to as "Committees") scrutinise those decisions and review policy.  There are also a number of Committees which deal with regulatory matters.

Historic Committee documents from the 2013-14 municipal years and earlier can be accessed from the Committees archive, which can be accessed by placing your cursor over the Committees tab in the list on the right of the screen and then clicking on the Committees Archive link.
