receive matters for consideration that may be
referred to it by the Cabinet or Council; set up Scrutiny Review
Panels to scrutinise matters in more detail;

areas:
·
Public and private housing including care for
vulnerable people and ensuring decent homes;
·
Business and economic development;
·
Regeneration and employment;
·
Sustainability, land and waste
management;
·

The committee's work will
involve looking at how the Council relates to and supports its

support a thriving inclusive, local economy, how they are
implemented and how performance is evaluated and
improved.
Scrutiny Review Panels
As and when required the
Enterprise and Wellbeing Scrutiny Committee may appoint task and
finish groups called Scrutiny Review Panels to undertake specific
scrutiny reviews of policies, issues or services in more detail.
All non-executive councillors can be involved in Scrutiny Review
Panel work whether or not they are a member of a Scrutiny
Committee.
