English term or phrase: chamber of scrutiny

The House of Lords act as chamber of scrutiny of the executive.

Ich verstehe das so, dass das Oberhaus gewissermassen einen prüfenden Blick auf die Exekutive hat, aber wie liesse sich denn "chamber of scrutiny" prägnant übersetzen? Mir fällt da nichts Gescheites ein ...
Danke für eure Hilfe!
