The Housing Scrutiny Committee consists of nine councillors
and six tenant and leaseholder representatives (two posts currently vacant).
The councillors and the representatives scrutinise the
decisions of the Executive Councillor for:
·
Community Safety, Homelessness and Wellbeing
·
Housing
The five tenants and one leaseholder on the Housing Scrutiny
Committee are elected every four years through a citywide ballot of all
Cambridge City Council tenants and leaseholders. For independence, the ballot
is run by an external organisation, Electoral Reform Services.
The number of tenant and leaseholder places on the Committee
represents the proportion of tenants and leaseholders living in Cambridge City
Council properties.
Elected residents on the Committee can receive an allowance
to cover their expenses and compensate for their time.
