WQ.122/2022

WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE CHAIR OF THE STATES EMPLOYMENT BOARD BY DEPUTY M.R. HIGGINS OF ST. HELIER

QUESTION SUBMITTED ON MONDAY 11th APRIL 2022

ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON WEDNESDAY 20th APRIL 2022

Question

"In relation to the Norfolk Police investigation into the Planning Department, will the Chair –

  1. present the report on the matter to the States before the end of the final meeting of States;
  2. explain what action, if any, the States Employment Board intends to take as a result of the report's findings with regard to structure, oversight and to personnel;
  3. make a statement to members to enable the findings to be discussed before the final parliamentary session concludes; and
  4. if he will not undertake any of paragraphs (a) to (c), explain why not?"

Answer

  1. The Terms of Reference for the Norfolk investigation were initiated before the time of the present SEB. The SEB have recently been informed that the Norfolk Police are not intending to produce a written report for the SEB following their investigation.
  2. The Board is meeting with the investigating officers from Norfolk Police to seek further information

about their investigations, findings, and decisions.

  1. Unfortunately, the Chair and full SEB are only being briefed on 27 April 2022. It is unlikely that a

statement will be made before the final States sitting concludes.

  1. See above.
