Committee details

The Oxfordshire Leaders (“Joint Committee”) serves as a platform for local authorities to collaborate on the Oxfordshire Strategic Vision. It will engage with the government on devolution and growth, focusing on creating an inclusive and sustainable economy. The Committee will address key priorities where joint working between the councils is essential, including devolution, economic strategy, spatial planning, growth, infrastructure strategy, energy plans, and the Net Zero Route Map. 

The Oxfordshire Leaders Joint Committee replaces the Future Oxfordshire Partnership. On 28 January 2025, Leaders of Oxfordshire Constituent Authorities endorsed the change of name of the Future Oxfordshire Partnership to the Oxfordshire Leaders Joint Committee, new Terms of Reference, and a Memorandum of Understanding. These will now take effect following approval by each council Cabinet.   

The Joint Committee is formed of the Constituent Councils, being the six councils of Oxfordshire: Cherwell District Council, Oxford City Council, South Oxfordshire District Council, Vale of White Horse District Council, West Oxfordshire District Council and Oxfordshire County Council.
