The Overview and Scrutiny Committee performs
an essential democratic function by examining and monitoring the
performance of services provided by the council and other agencies.
The committee can review and critically assess the council’s
budget and policies, whist holding cabinet members to account by
conducting detailed interviews in how they are improving
services.
Scrutiny committee meetings are accessible to
the public, whilst also being livestreamed and recorded. The
individual meeting recordings can be reached here on the meeting
pages and are hosted on the Council’s YouTube
channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/southwarkcouncil/.
