Questions at Overview and Scrutiny Panels
All four overview and scrutiny Panels and their task and finish groups may invite members of the public to submit their views and to participate in discussion. Overview and scrutiny meetings are more informal than Cabinet. This is at the discretion of the Panel, according to the purpose of the meeting. If the Panel has agreed to involve the public in their meeting, they will invite people to engage in discussions and ask questions relating to the matter under discussion as the meeting progresses, rather than having to submit a pre-prepared question.
For more information about what to expect at an overview and scrutiny meeting, please contact the Scrutiny Unit (01788) 533592.
Questions which cannot be accepted
Both Cabinet and overview and scrutiny Panels cannot accept questions about:
- an individual's particular case or circumstances
- any particular housing, planning, licensing or grant application
- a matter outside the terms of reference of the Cabinet or the Panel (as defined under paragraphs 5 and 6 of Part 2(a) of the Council's Constitution)
- any matter subject to legal proceedings
- an individual employed by the Council
- a matter that requires the release of confidential information (under Part 1 of Schedule 12A of the Local Government Act1972).
