Equality Outcomes - our priorities

The Council is a democratically run body, with its decision-making committees open to the public and agreed by local politicians who are directly elected by the public to represent them in Edinburgh.

The Council also delivers all major elections in the city including local elections, Scottish Parliamentary, and UK Parliamentary elections.

Our services support people to engage in the democratic process so they can:

• Vote 
• Stand for election
• Participate in community councils 
• Access committee meetings and papers
• Contact their Councillor

We want to understand if these democratic services have met your needs in the past year.
