History



Formation


Surrey County Council was created in 1889 by the Local Government Act 1888, which established the county council local government system in England and Wales. The council was originally headquartered in Newington;[5] however it moved to Surrey County Hall, Kingston upon Thames in 1893 as Newington had become part of the County of London in 1889 instead of Surrey.[6] Kingston upon Thames became part of Greater London in 1965, but the headquarters remain there.



Post-1974


The Local Government Act 1972 led to Surrey becoming a Non-metropolitan county.[7][8]



Responsibilities


The council is responsible for a number of local public services in Surrey. These include the standard responsibilities of county councils in England and Wales such as transport and highway management, waste disposal (but not collection) and education.[9]


Parents are taking Surrey County Council to court because they claim their disabled children's needs are not met due to cuts. Debbie Butler with an autistic son and daughter stated, "The support that these children get could enable them to be independent. Without that support, they're always going to need help from society, so in the long term it's actually cheaper to put the provision in now."[10]



District and borough councils


There are 11 borough or district councils that govern at a more local level than Surrey County Council.[11]



  • Elmbridge Borough Council

  • Epsom and Ewell Borough Council

  • Guildford Borough Council

  • Mole Valley District Council

  • Reigate and Banstead Borough Council

  • Runnymede Borough Council

  • Spelthorne Borough Council

  • Surrey Heath Borough Council

  • Tandridge District Council

  • Waverley Borough Council

  • Woking Borough Council



Elections


Main article: Surrey County Council elections

The public have elected a majority of Conservative councillors to its political body since 1965, with one exception — from 1993 to 1997 a status of no overall control in the declared affiliations of councillors prevailed.[12]


The most recent election (in 2017) altered the composition of the council chamber and committees to a total of: 61 Conservatives, 9 Liberal Democrats, 9 Residents association/Independent councillors, 1 Labour and 1 Green councillor.[3][13]


The next elections will take place in May 2021.[14][15]
