Issue - meetings

The Chair welcomed Nic Vine (Strategy and Commissioning manager – Legal and Democratic) to the meeting. The key elements of the published report were set out to the committee. It was explained that a consultant had been commissioned to undertake the review and that her findings had been very positive. A series of recommendations had been developed for how scrutiny could be improved at the County Council.

Councillor Jerry Roodhouse suggested that scrutiny should have a closer alignment to data and performance.

Resolved:

That the Committee notes the findings of the independent review into Overview and Scrutiny.
