Scrutiny Committee

The Scrutiny Committee acts as a critical friend to Trafford Council's Executive, reviewing council services, policies, and decisions that affect local people. It examines how services are performing, how policies are implemented, and any issue of local concern, including decisions made by the Executive and external organisations like the local NHS.

This committee makes recommendations for service improvements and ensures decisions are fair, practical, and in the public's best interest. It involves the public in its work, gathering evidence from residents and stakeholders to inform its reviews and influence council decisions.
