Welcome to our Scrutiny Review Library

This library is a resource to help councils explore how others have tackled similar challenges through scrutiny activities

It brings together examples of scrutiny work from across the sector—including topic deep dives, inquiries, task and finish reports and annual reports. Instead of hosting full reports, we provide short summaries, links to the original documents, and contact details.

We’re also inviting councils to contribute their own examples, helping to build a shared resource that supports stronger, more informed scrutiny practice.
