Open overview and scrutiny investigations

Resident engagement in housing development

The Housing Select Committee is currently carrying out a scrutiny review of resident engagement in housing development – the way that local people are informed and involved in the process when new homes are built in their area.

The committee’s review will be looking into how the Council and its partners currently engage with communities around regeneration and developing housing, and what has been learned from previous engagement exercises. For more information about the review, you can read the scoping paper.

Scrutiny review responses

Thank you to everyone who submitted their views. The committee has now finished gathering evidence for the review. The committee is due to consider the evidence and possible recommendations to Mayor and Cabinet at a meeting on Monday 16 December.
