Committee details

The Council has appointed two Overview & Scrutiny Committees, an Internal Overview & Scrutiny Committee and an External Overview & Scrutiny Committee.

The Internal Overview & Scrutiny Committee has the power to review the policies of the Council and its objectives, and is entitled to ‘call in’ decisions made by the Community & Resources Committee which are not yet implemented. They can also recommend that the Community & Resources Committee reconsider such a decision. Issues that remain unresolved will be referred to the Full Council for determination.

The meeting will be shown live on the Council’s YouTube channel which you can access via the following link: - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCy6HLRBfmTsd6UOt9ur_k3g/
