External Scrutiny with Councillors

Every year Redbridge Councils holds an external scrutiny meeting with young people to help the voice their concerns and priorities directly to Councillors.

In 2020, young people presented at External Scrutiny via MS Teams on four topic areas that they felt were the most important to them. These were:

  • Black History
  • Why Redbridge?
  • Young People’s Current Concerns
  • Environment

Prior to the meeting, young people met with officers from different service areas as part of their research into each topic area to help them arrive at recommendations. Recommendations were presented at External Scrutiny on 25 November at a lively session with Councillors and Officers. Councillors received a summary of issues raised by the young people for their cabinet portfolio areas to take forward.
