About

The Strategic Overview & Scrutiny Committee supports the work of the Council and its Executive.   There is one overall Strategic Overview & Scrutiny Committee that is responsible for monitoring and reviewing all its decisions taken by the Executive.   More information about what the Strategic Overview & Scrutiny Committee is responsible for and who the members are, is available in the Ipswich Borough Council Constitution (Part 3, Section 4).   If the Strategic Overview & Scrutiny Committee considers that a decision is taken which may be contrary to public interest it can recommend that Executive reconsiders this decision.   The Overview & Scrutiny function ensures that:   Executive Decisions are publicly held to account; The policy process and decision making becomes more transparent; The corporate priorities and the budgetary framework are effective.   Call-in   If it is felt that an Executive decision has been made incorrectly, the Strategic Overview & Scrutiny Committee has the power to call-in that decision. The decision then cannot be acted upon until the ‘call-in’ has been considered by Strategic Overview & Scrutiny Committee. If, after considering the call-in, the Committee still has concerns, it can refer the matter back to the Executive.   More information about the call-in process is available in the Ipswich Borough Council Constitution (Part 4, Section 5).
