How Newham is Governed
Overview and
Scrutiny
The Overview and Scrutiny function acts as
a check and balance on the Executive Mayor, holding him to account
for his decisions.
Scrutiny also reviews
and helps to develop our policies to ensure that they have a
positive impact on the people of Newham.
The Mayor and cabinet members may not sit on the Overview and
Scrutiny Committee or the Scrutiny Commissions it sets up to look
into specific topics and activities. |
