There's often mention of US "Oversight Committees"

I assume these are in order to oversee a process to ensure it's done properly (I've never heard the expression applied in British politics).

But it sounds to me like a committee of forgetful old fuddy-duddies:

"Oh forgive me for not having done such-and-such; it was an oversight on my part" :-)

One for your English section, Dragan.
- Whoever said that women are the weaker sex never tried to wrest the bedclothes off one in the middle of the night
- Worry is the interest you pay, in advance, for a loan that you may never need to take out.
