Haringey Council's Climate, Community Safety & Environment Scrutiny Panel convened on Monday, 28 July 2025, to discuss and provide feedback on the updated Climate Change Action Plan. The plan outlines the council's strategy for addressing climate change within the borough.
The meeting, held at George Meehan House, saw the attendance of Councillors Makbule Gunes (Chair), Liam Carroll, Luke Cawley-Harrison, Eldridge Culverwell, George Dunstall, Mark Grosskopf and Sue Jameson.
The panel's discussion was centred around the Scrutiny Panel - Climate Action Plan - July 2025 document, which detailed the latest developments in the Climate Change Action Plan. The panel also reviewed Appendix A - CAP RAG Review July 2025, a RAG (Red, Amber, Green) assessment of the plan's various components. This RAG review identifies areas where progress is on track (Green), requires attention (Amber), or is facing significant challenges (Red).
Specifically, the CAP RAG Review outlines the specific actions within the Climate Change Action Plan that are currently rated as 'Red' or 'Amber', along with the reasons for these classifications.
The Work Plan 2022-26 indicates that the Scrutiny Panel engaged in discussions regarding potential changes to the Climate Action Plan's content and structure, and made recommendations for improvement. The Climate Action Plan update provides an overview of the timeline for implementing the updated Climate Change Action Plan, and the council will schedule future reviews to assess progress.
