Hounslow Council's new Cabinet takes shape after Labour victory

14 June 2026 · By Boroughly editorial — AI-assisted, human-reviewed.

Hounslow Council has confirmed the make-up of its new Cabinet following Labour's majority win in the 7 May local elections. The Cabinet is the executive body that takes most of the key decisions on council policy, spending, and services across the borough, including in Chiswick.

The new Cabinet's composition will shape priorities on issues that directly affect W4 and W6 residents, including transport planning, housing development, green spaces, and public health programmes. Cabinet portfolios typically cover areas such as environment, children's services, adult social care, and economic development.

Residents wishing to understand who now holds responsibility for specific policy areas — for instance, planning decisions on Chiswick High Road or the future of local leisure facilities — can find the full Cabinet list on the council's website. Cabinet meetings are open to the public and are usually held monthly at the Hounslow Civic Centre in Lampton Road. Agendas and minutes are published in advance online.
