This report asks the Conservators to consider whether any changes may be required to the Epsom and Walton Downs Regulation Act 1984 to ensure the continued effective governance, management, and operation of Epsom and Walton Downs following Local Government Reorganisation (LGR).

Epsom & Ewell Borough Council is due to be dissolved on 31 March 2027, with the new East Surrey Council assuming responsibilities and services from 1 April 2027.

This report invites the Conservators to initiate early discussion on whether amendments or clarifications to the Act, or associated governance arrangements, may be required to support a smooth transition and continuity of function.
