Lewisham Council's Sustainable Development Committee is focusing its 2026-27 work programme on climate and housing, informing future financial spending plans.

Lewisham Council's Sustainable Development Committee's 2026-27 work programme, approved in July 2026, focuses on the climate and ecological crisis, explicitly linking sustainability to housing. This includes scrutiny of the council's climate emergency response, renewable energy rollout, social housing decarbonisation, waste management, and biodiversity recovery, which will inform the administration's financial spending plans.

The administration's budget proposals outline the financial spending plans put forward by Lewisham Council. The Sustainable Development Select Committee, chaired by Councillor Kate Anderson, met in July 2026 to review proposed work programmes for its select committees, including its own focus for the upcoming year.
