The Adults and Health Overview and Scrutiny Sub-Committee scrutinises adult social care and health services in Barnet. It reviews the planning, provision, and operation of these services, including those provided by NHS organisations and external inspections. The committee also considers policy proposals impacting health, public health, social care, and wellbeing, and collaborates with health agencies.
It makes recommendations on NHS consultations for service developments affecting Barnet residents and responds to consultations from health trusts and relevant government bodies. The sub-committee ensures referrals from HealthWatch are acknowledged and acted upon, fulfilling its statutory duties regarding health scrutiny.
