Local Government: Surrey
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, whether her Department plans to publish a report on proposals for local government reorganisation in Surrey.
Answered by Alison McGovern
On 17 June, MHCLG launched a consultation on two proposals for unitary local government made by Surrey councils. That consultation closed on 5 August. A decision will now be made on which proposal, if any, to implement by assessing the proposals against the criteria set out in the statutory guidance accompanying the invitation, and having regard to all representations received to the consultation, and to all other relevant information available. In line with usual practice, a summary of the consultation responses will be published in due course.
