Scrutiny
Scrutiny Committees Work Programmes
The County Council's Scrutiny Work Programme identifies those areas of activity or work proposed to be undertaken by individual Scrutiny Committees over the coming months, notwithstanding the rights of County Councillors to ask for any matter to be considered by a Committee or to call-in certain decisions in line with the Council’s Scheme of Delegation (Part 3 of the Constitution) and the Scrutiny Procedures Rules.
Co-ordination of the activities of Scrutiny Committees is undertaken by the Chairmen and Vice-Chairmen of Scrutiny Committees to avoid duplication of effort and to ensure that the resources of the Council are best directed to support the work of Scrutiny Committees.
The Work Programme will be submitted to and agreed by Scrutiny Committees at each meeting and will published on this webpage as soon as possible thereafter. You can see the Work Programme here

An up to date version of this Plan will also be available for inspection from the Democratic Services and Scrutiny Secretariat at County Hall, Topsham Road, Exeter (Telephone: 01392 382300) between the hours of 9.30am and 4.30am on Mondays to Thursdays and 9.30am and 3.30pm on Fridays, free of charge.
Where possible Scrutiny Committees will attempt to keep to the timescales/dates shown in the Plan. It is possible, however, that some items may need to be rescheduled and new items added as new circumstances come to light.
Copies of Agenda and Reports of Scrutiny Committees of the County Council referred to in this Forward Plan area also available on the Council's Website at www.devon.gov.uk/dcc/committee/mingifs.
