OVERVIEW AND SCRUTINY COMMITTEE WORK PROGRAMME 2010/2011 GUIDANCE FOR REVIEWING THE WORK PROGRAMME In setting future Scrutiny topics, the Committee is asked to: a) Demonstrate the value any investigation would have to the Council’s Community Leadership Role. b) Consider the relationship any future topic may have with the work of the Cabinet’s Work Programme and the Council’s Corporate Plan c) Be mindful of the public’s priorities. d) Provide reasons for the investigation (so that Officers/Witnesses can assist Members to reach an outcome). e) Consider the outcomes required before commencing an investigation. f) Balance the need for new topics with existing items on the Scrutiny Work Programme. g) Consider whether it would be helpful to time limit investigations or break down some topics into smaller areas. h) Provide sufficient notice, where possible, in order that the Cabinet Member with responsibility for the subject, Officers and outside witnesses/attendees can fully assist the Committee.
