Overview and Scrutiny

Overview and Scrutiny Committees were introduced by the Local Government Act 2000 primarily to hold council Executives to account.

 

Our Overview and Scrutiny Committee works with Task Groups to try to ensure that our Cabinet makes the right decisions as well as improving our performance and service delivery.  The Task Groups also carry out detailed reviews of council services or issues which affect your lives.  They allow you to have a greater say in council matters by holding public enquiries into topics of local concern.
