Scrutiny Reviews
Scrutiny Reviews or 'working groups'
Scrutiny Reviews are time-limited investigations into
chosen topics. These can be for a short or long period depending on
the subject matter and depth of the investigation.
They are established by the Overview Committee who will
consider the outcome of any working group deliberations.
A small working group of Councillors will be selected to
undertake the review and a time will be allocated in order to
report findings back to the Overview Committee.
Working groups add significantly to the Committee’s ability to
scrutinise particular policy or service areas and to make an impact
on the performance of local services.
Wherever possible members of public and community and voluntary
groups will be consulted for their input into this
work.
The working group reports its findings to the Overview
Committee and that Committee will closely monitor any
recommendations made to Cabinet or other relevant
organisations.

completed reviews) see the links below:
They include information on the subject matter, purpose of the
review, duration and, where necessary, any input required from
the public.
