Scrutiny

Scrutiny seeks to improve services for the local community. It examines the performance of Cabinet, council departments, health bodies, contractors and external agencies that provide services within the borough. Scrutiny committees and panels aim to actively engage people in the decision-making processes of the council and highlight local issues.
