County council
The county council handles services including social care, education, most local roads, libraries and waste disposal. District councils have a separate role.

Who does what: Woking
Woking local authority area. Every figure carries its own date.
The organisation that can change something depends on the service.
District and borough councils
District councils handle housing advice, homelessness, waste collection, environmental health and much local planning. National parks have their own planning responsibilities within their boundaries.
Woking Borough Council →Other public services
A council plan cannot commit a health service, police force, water provider or national department to deliver. Each project and proposed action identifies its responsible bodies.
