Croydon scrutiny committees
About the Scrutiny process in Croydon.
Croydon has a main overview committee and four sub-committees that carry out Scrutiny work:
- Scrutiny and Overview Committee - council strategy and policy, financial performance, community safety and crime reduction
- Scrutiny Children and Young People Sub Committee - education and other LEA matters, children’s social services
- Scrutiny Health and Social Care Sub Committee - health, adult social care and mental health
- Scrutiny Streets Environment and Homes Sub Committee - highways and streets, environment, conservation, climate change and flood risk
- Scrutiny Homes Sub-Committee - housing policies, housing improvement plan, homelessness and rough sleeping, temporary and emergency accommodation, housing revenue account
These committees have regular meetings and sometimes also work in more informal ways - such as through workshops, site visits, evidence sessions, literature reviews, surveys and Local Action Mini Reviews. They may use this information to make recommendations to the council’s Cabinet or other external bodies about how services could be improved or developed.
Seeking answers at public meetings
Scrutiny committees listen to local people and make recommendations on future policies. Scrutiny is not confined to what the council does. Scrutiny committees also look at local health services (including GP surgeries, hospitals, midwives and health visitors and community workers), crime and disorder matters, schooling and education, transport, recreational facilities (such as free swimming lessons), flooding and many other issues which affect the community.
Your participation is important, question officers and contribute to our discussions.
