Each week council leaders across Surrey will meet to develop an interim proposal, in line with government criteria, to be submitted by 21 March. A full proposal will follow, by 9 May.

We will share updates from the Surrey Leaders Steering Group each week on this page. The most recent updates are at the top. 

Surrey Leaders Group is a forum for the leaders of councils within Surrey to meet to discuss issues relevant to all councils in the area. The current chair is Cllr Hannah Dalton, Chair of the Residents Association, Majority Group, Epsom and Ewell Borough Council.

Meeting 7 February 2025 

"At a meeting of the Surrey Leaders Group which took place on 7 February, it was agreed that following the announcement by the Government last week, a single unitary would not be explored as an option of reorganisation, but we remain committed to working together towards submitting one bid for the county."
