The Centre for Public Scrutiny promotes the value of scrutiny and accountability in modern and effective government and supports non-executives in their scrutiny role
"This guide is one of a series designed to help Overview and Scrutiny Committees (OSCs) carry out their scrutiny work around various health, healthcare and social care topics. This guide is designed to help OSCs develop a range of high-level questions around support arrangements for local involvement networks. "
The aim of the guide is to help OSCs learn from the experiences of others and to assist them to scope scrutiny reviews, based on some key questions. It aims to cover all the relevant issues, but please adapt it to suit local circumstances. For example, it may not be relevant to ask all the questions listed here or to follow the sections sequentially.
