10 questions to ask to enhance the value of sexual health, reproductive health and contraception services
Ten questions council scrutiny committees can ask about commissioning, delivery and outcomes from services.
This guide aims to help councillors to build their knowledge and understanding about sexual health, reproductive health and contraception services and to consider using their scrutiny role to review local services. It also aims to help officers supporting scrutiny committees to find sources of data and information that can help inform decisions about whether to review local services and to inform scrutiny reviews where they are undertaken.
The guide suggests questions that scrutiny committees can consider asking commissioners, providers and other stakeholders to make sure that local plans and strategies for good sexual health and effective services are delivering the best outcomes.
