Committee details

The local committee is made up of all county councillors for the Carlisle area. The Committee has powers to make decisions on a range of matters affecting their local area.

The County Council is committed to providing opportunities for the people of Cumbria to have a say in the Council's work and is keen to encourage the public to attend meetings, listen to debates and give residents the opportunity to make their views known on issues they feel strongly about.  Follow the link to the Public Participation Scheme to find out how you can get involved by asking questions, presenting petitions, or leading deputations at meetings.
