Cambridgeshire & Peterborough Combined Authority

Strengthening the Scrutiny Function

Overview and scrutiny function

This case study highlights the transformative journey of the Overview & Scrutiny function at Cambridgeshire & Peterborough Combined Authority.

As part of a comprehensive governance improvement program, the scrutiny process has been refined to align with the unique demands of Combined Authority operations. This tailored approach encompasses strategic focus, in-depth reviews, and the implementation of elements such as the Corporate Performance Dashboard and Major Projects Dashboard, contributing to transparent and effective decision-making.

This case study is example of good governance, demonstrating how a tailored approach to scrutiny, supported by specialised tools, can elevate decision-making, foster strategic partnerships, and enhance accountability.

This was submitted by Jodie Townsend, Governance Improvement Lead, Cambridgeshire & Peterborough Combined Authority.
