Help us by having your say

The council's overview and scrutiny committee has a range of roles, including:

  • helping to develop council policy
  • reviewing council services
  • making sure the council operates effectively and efficiently
  • reviewing services provided by other public bodies, such as the police and NHS

You can have a say by suggesting topics and issues you feel our overview and scutiny committees should focus on.

Both overview and scrutiny committees have rolling work programmes which residents can play a part in - either by suggesting a subject for a review or attending a meeting to give evidence.

We want to hear ideas which you believe could make a real, positive impact for the borough's residents, or help the council save money, operate more efficiently or generate revenue.

You can find out details about overview and scrutiny meetings - including dates, agendas and minutes - on the council website.

To make a suggestion for a scrutiny review, or to request to speak at an overview and scrutiny committee meeting, call our democratic services team on (01788) 533522 or email scrutiny@rugby.gov.uk at least three working days before the meeting.
