About

The Children, Families and Communities Scrutiny Committee reviews and examines council services and functions related to children, families, and communities in Newcastle upon Tyne. It ensures these services are effective, inclusive, and meet local needs.

This committee has a specific role in scrutinising crime and disorder matters, acting as the council's designated Crime and Disorder Committee. It can request information from responsible authorities and co-operating bodies, and require attendance from their officers. The committee makes reports and recommendations to the council, cabinet, and other relevant organisations, and can establish sub-committees to assist with its work.
