Have your say on the future of local councils in Surrey

Take part in a landmark Government consultation on proposals to replace Surrey's current councils with up to three larger authorities. We support a three unitary approach - Find out more and read our consultation question guide.

Join us for a special online engagement session hosted by the Leaders of Guildford and Waverley Borough Councils on Thursday 3 July from 7pm to 8pm via Microsoft Teams. We'll explain what Local Government Reorganisation is, outline the different options being considered, and show you how to get involved. Sign up for the session (opens new window).

I want to see a copy of a planning document that isn't on your website

The FOIA and EIR recommend a policy of 'disclosure', in other words if you wish to see a document then you should be able to, as long as giving that information does not break any of the rules in the GPDR.

We will not be able to supply any documents containing sensitive or confidential information. This might include documents containing email addresses and telephone numbers, locations of rare species of wildlife, or information that an applicant has told us is commercially sensitive. Examples of sensitive documents are some viability assessments, documents containing financial information or medical information. Any documents we do supply will have personal details redacted.

Building Control documents are not public information and are not sent out to anyone other than the applicant or agent.
