Search Panel Agendas and Minutes

The Technical, Economic and Environmental Services Scrutiny Panel has the responsibility for considering all elements of Council policies in relation to the provision of engineering and transport services, environmental health and the environment in which we live and the economy and prosperity of Tameside.

The scrutiny panel gives consideration, therefore, to economic development and regeneration policies and the Council's policies for the management of its assets.

The panel has also considered the Council's policies with regard to environmental health, refuse collection and recycling, but its areas for consideration also include pest control and food hygiene. The scrutiny panel has considered the buildings, roads, footpaths and grounds maintenance of the cemeteries and crematorium, Section 106 Planning Agreements, Stretched Limousines and Recycling/Minimising Waste from Council premises and Operations.

Scrutiny Update - Autumn 2009

The Panel has concluded its review of the implementation of the Working Differently Programme and the Efficient and Effective Use of Accommodation 328.36 KB PDF File. This has been well received with all recommendations accepted by the Executive. The Panel has also monitored the progress of the renovation and rebuilding works to Ashton Market Hall.

At the request of the Cabinet Deputy, the Panel is now looking at Hire Rates for Town Halls and Community Buildings. This shows how Scrutiny can look at difficult issues in an objective way and working with the Executive introduce more effective ways of working. It will be producing a report soon and this will form the basis of wide consultation.

The Scrutiny Panel will receive a presentation on Winter Gritting at its meeting in October. This will be particularly relevant in respect of new housing estates or where highways have yet to be formally adopted.

As part of its annual work programme, the Panel intends to undertake full reviews of Parking and Traffic Management in Town Centres; Skills and Worklessness.
