Background
As part of the Children's Legislation Transformation Programme (CLTP), funding was approved in the Government Plan 2020 to 2023, to enable statutory registration and inspection requirements to be introduced for services to children and their families. Draft regulations were presented to the Council of Ministers on 15 February, which are a continuation of the existing phased approach to extending the remit of the Jersey Care Commission (JCC) and fulfil a Ministerial policy commitment.
The funding was allocated to CYPES, representing the fees that will be paid by Government services to the JCC to cover the costs incurred in independent regulation and inspection.
It has since been agreed that the funding should transfer to the JCC, through SPPP as the sponsoring department, which will then eliminate the need to charge for the work. This will also allow the JCC to start recruitment of additional inspectors and to prepare for when the regulations come into force
