About

The Corporate Scrutiny Committee provides strategic oversight and scrutiny of Newcastle City Council's corporate functions, including finance, governance, performance, and service delivery. It ensures transparency and accountability across the organisation.

The committee reviews decisions called in for scrutiny, considers issues referred by the City Council or Cabinet, and oversees the council's external scrutiny activities. It can make reports and recommendations to the City Council, Cabinet, or other relevant bodies, and may commission research or consult with external groups. The committee has the power to require senior officers and Cabinet members to attend and answer questions.
