SCRUTINY TONIGHT

Our first Scrutiny Committee for 2 months tonight - 6pm, County Hall. On the agenda: school governors along to tell us what they think of the support they get to help improve school attainment; a belated call-in enquiry into further Health & Social Care integration (interestingly last night at a Policy Commission I learnt that a £million here or there in Health Trust budgeting is considered acceptable); and the Wightcare privatisation update - though that was apparently dealt with by press release on Monday!

Scrutiny's independence from the administration remains under attack from a number of sources - so we must be doing something right. Fortunately just about all of the Committee are united in defence of independence.

(My 4th post in the last week - if you are going to blog you have to COMMIT to it !)

Not only are you more committed, but you spell correctly too. The number of mistakes in your recent competitor's last blog is shameful. Perhaps he should take a lesson from the education staff that he has been meeting.

He must be reading your blog and these comments, because he has now corrected the mistakes. If he only had the courage to allow comments to his blog we could tell him directly.
