Ask Cabinet - 18 November
Monday, October 27, 2025
Residents are being invited to put their questions to Wakefield Council’s Cabinet.
A Q&A session will take place on 18 November, after the formal Cabinet meeting is finished. The elected members who make up the Cabinet are the Council’s key decision makers. And will all be in attendance.
“We got a really good response to the Q&A session last time, so we’ve decided to get our residents involved again, and this time we’ll be at Stanley Library.
“The Cabinet makes important decisions about services in your local community. We want to hear from you about what matters most to you and your community, what’s working well, and what could be better.
“Send your questions in and there’s a chance it might be answered live at the Q&A session. You can follow the meeting live online, watch the recording later or come along.
“Your feedback will help us to continue to focus our work on what’s important to you. Deliver on the things that matter the most in our local communities. And to make sure every pound we spend makes the biggest difference it can.”
Cllr Denise Jeffery
Leader of Wakefield Council

As many pre-submitted questions as possible will be answered in the Q&A session.
The Q&A session will begin once the Cabinet, which starts at 10.30am, ends. Both the Cabinet meeting and the Q&A session will be streamed live at Wakefield Council - Cabinet meetings - YouTube
