If you follow the news or have any interest at all in how taxpayers' money - your money - is spent in Jersey, then you must surely have heard references to 'Scrutiny'.
As mentioned in our 'Jersey Politics 101' podcast episode, Scrutiny is how politicians make sure that the government is held to account by checking and challenging policies, laws and the spending of public money.
What really is Scrutiny, though? How does it work, who are the scrutineers and what do they do to get the best outcomes for Islanders?
Host: Emily Thomas
