to improve services; and ensuring that the council makes decisions
in the community's best
interest. | |

Here you can find out how the council works, how we make
decisions and how you can get involved and influence those
decisions. These pages will help you to find information on a range
of topics - click on the links below to find out more.
Scrutiny
Legislation, implemented in May 2002, requires
every council to have a scrutiny process in place. Each council has
developed its own kind of scrutiny service but all scrutiny
services involve a committee or a number of committees made up of
councillors.
Elections and voting
Borough council elections are held every four years and to be
able to vote in any election your name needs to be on the current
register of electors.
Council constitution
The constitution is the council's internal rule book. It sets out
how the council will operate and how decisions are made. Please
