To endorse the appointment of an Epping Forest Verderer (South).

The Court considered a report which recommended the appointment of Nicholas Munday as Epping Forest Verderer (South) and to note the proposal that future Verderer appointments are put to it for information only.

The Epping Forest and Commons Committee is made up of 12 Common Councilmen and 4 Verderers of Epping Forest, as specified by the Epping Forest Act (1878).

Following the untimely death in service of Peter Adams MBE, who served as a Verderer of Epping Forest since January 1997 until 6 April 2018, and in accordance with the Epping Forest Act (1878), the Epping Forest and Commons Committee appointed a working party to recruit to this position. Following completion of the recruitment process, the Epping Forest and Commons Committee unanimously recommend that Nicholas Munday be appointed as Epping Forest Verderer (South).

Resolved – That the Court endorse the appointment of Nicholas Munday as Epping Forest Verderer (South) and note the proposal that future Verderer appointments are put to it for information only.
