COVID-19 Reviews

Scrutiny reviews of the COVID-19 response

CfGS has launched a new support package to help councils with the design and delivery of scrutiny-led reviews of the COVID-19 response and recovery. 

Scrutiny will play a key role in this work and CfGS wants to ensure that all review activity contributes positively to the next stage of your council’s response and recovery.

We have been working closely with councils throughout the emergency response phase – drawing on this learning and our wealth of governance and scrutiny expertise – we can help with:

• Designing the review approach – using a newly developed framework and methodology to support and guide the review design
• Delivery capacity and expertise – providing independent expert facilitation and additional capacity to deliver the review
• Expert oversight and assurance – working alongside the council to independently support and assure the review approach and outcomes
