Extraordinary Meeting, Cabinet - Wednesday, 8 January 2025 2.30 pm
The Cabinet of Surrey Council voted to approve a response to the government's English Devolution White Paper[^2]. The response requests that Surrey be included in the government's accelerated devolution programme, and that local elections in May 2025 be postponed. Much of the meeting was spent discussing local government reorganisation, and the government's desire for two-tier authorities to be replaced with unitary authorities.
Extraordinary Meeting, Council - Wednesday, 8 January 2025 10.00 am
Surrey Council agreed to respond to the Government's request to participate in a joint devolution and local government reorganisation programme. This acceptance will likely mean that the 2025 County Council elections will be postponed. The Council also noted that the decision to respond to the government's letter was an executive decision for the Leader of the Council to make.
the Health and Wellbeing Board of Surrey Council
The Board agreed to formally adopt a Memorandum of Understanding with the Surrey Heartlands Integrated Care Partnership that will combine both organisations. The Board also agreed to remove strategic oversight of community safety from its responsibilities and create a new Community Safety and Prevention Board. Finally, the Board approved a new strategy for supporting sanctuary seekers in Surrey.
