REPORT
The proposals contained in P.79/2009 to create a new vehicle for delivering regeneration are to be welcomed. Given the States' strategic policy of concentrating the development of new housing units in the Parish of St. Helier , it is also appropriate that the Constable of St. Helier should be a member of the proposed Regeneration Steering Group. In addition, the proposed Group rightly includes a co-opted Connétable from the Parish in which regeneration projects are planned.
However, I think that other key paragraphs which the States are asked to adopt in part (a) of the proposition need to give more weight to the influence of the Parish administration on regeneration planning; after all, Islanders live in Parishes, their views about development within their boundaries are often expressed at Parish Assemblies, and each Parish is served by an elected Roads Committee. Regeneration projects are likely to be much more successful if Parish representation involves more than including the Connétable of the Parish concerned on the Regeneration Steering Group.
Financial and manpower implications
There are no financial or manpower implications arising from this amendment.
