executive management structure has to have an overview and scrutiny
function. Somerset Council has appointed five scrutiny committees
to perform this function:
·
Adults and Health
·
Children and Families
·
Climate and Place
·

The scrutiny committees each
fulfil a check and challenge function for decisions and policies
made by the Executive.
Corporate and Resources
Functional areas that are
the responsibility of the Committee are as follows:
·
Finance and Procurement

Strategic Asset Management
·
ICT
·
Partnerships and Localities
·
