fairness
Councils are currently focusing on embedding fairness in strategic plans and addressing equitable policy impacts.
Hounslow Council recently launched its 'A Fairer Future' Corporate Plan for 2026-2030, aiming to create a more equitable borough by addressing inequalities. This strategic priority, presented to the Hounslow Health and Wellbeing Board in October 2026, organises initiatives around residents' lives, local places, and preventative measures.
Separately, Hillingdon Council defeated a motion in September 2026 to update its Code of Conduct for members, which Councillor Sital Punja argued was outdated and lacked explicit provisions for issues like bullying and racism. The proposed changes aimed to introduce clearer provisions regarding discrimination and social media conduct.
Meanwhile, Enfield Council is set to review the impact of Low Traffic Neighbourhoods on blue badge holders, following a motion in November 2025 to ensure equality and fairness. Redbridge Council is also considering mitigations for lower-income households regarding emissions-based parking permits, as discussed in November 2025.
