Project summary
The Independent Jersey Care Inquiry, and subsequent Ofsted inspections, identified the need to develop services for young people to stop or reduce their escalation through statutory systems as a result of their level of vulnerability or risk.
Jersey needs to develop effective intensive support for young people who are at significant risk, vulnerable, or who may pose a risk to others. For small but significant numbers of children/young people, Jersey has been unable to stop progression through statutory systems or reduce the seriousness of the child s situation. One of the Government s strategic priorities is to Put Children First . The development of the service will help provide a robust, intensive response that meets those children s needs.
This investment will enable the development of an integrated intensive support service for young people considered to be the most vulnerable, at risk or a risk to others. The service will provide wrap around support for the young people and will deliver an effective response which intervenes in the presenting behaviours while responding in a child-centred manner that is inclusive of the family or carers, and is trauma-informed, restorative and underpinned by a systemic approach. This includes education and therapeutic approaches involving individual, family and group sessions as well as targeted youth support using an outreach model.
This service is positioned as an alternative to care and to assist in a return home or to positively stabilise the circumstances for those already in care. The service will work to prevent placements off-Island
or to support a return from existing off-Island provision. It will also seek to reduce the requirement for placement in secure care and reduce the risk of children going into the criminal justice system.
Impact on sustainable wellbeing
Community Wellbeing - the quality of people s lives
This investment targets a cohort of young people and children with a high level of complex need. Without support, these children are much more likely than other children to require high-cost services throughout their lives such as mental health services, adult social care, be involved in criminal justice and substance misuse system as well as require health services. Tackling the young people s assessed needs now will have a beneficial effect on their life chances and support them to become more positive contributors to our society.
All children in Jersey live healthy lives as part of the programme of intervention, young people will
participate in individual and groupwork programmes with physical and mental health as a focus. This will encompass the provision of staff to deliver practical support for medical appointments, health education and promotion as well as therapists treatment and therapeutic support. Some young people may require treatment for neuro-developmental issues such as ADHD, ADD, and conditions on the autistic spectrum. They will be supported to participate with treatment and medication programmes.
All children in Jersey learn and achieve - many of the cohort will have missed significant elements of
education and learning and may be excluded from, or not participating in, their education placement. Each child will have an educational assessment, individual education plan, and have an individualised programme of learning. Where possible, young people will be supported to return to their named school.
All children in Jersey grow up safely many of this cohort have experienced abuse or trauma at an
earlier stage in their lives. They may be struggling to deal with these experiences and behaving in ways that are considered to put themselves or others at risk. Work will be carried out with these young people to help them cope with their experiences and support them to facilitate a reduction in the risky behaviour they are manifesting.
Health and Wellbeing - Mental health and wellbeing are fundamental to quality of life in Jersey
where young people are involved in behaviour considered to be complex, challenging or risky, the impact on parents and other family members can be significant and, in some cases, this can lead to family breakdown with a child coming into the care of the Minister. To help avoid these outcomes, young people and their families will be supported by the multi-agency staff group in parenting support, family therapy and coping mechanisms potentially across seven days to support the family to develop their skills, resilience and wellbeing.
Safety and security Islanders are safe and protected at home, work and in public - the young
people who will be supported by this service are those most at risk in our community. They may be vulnerable to exploitation by adults and/or they may be involved in behaviour which places individuals at risk or in a state of alarm this may include behaviour classified as anti-social behaviour such as community disturbances or substance misuse. The programme will work with young people utilising a restorative and reparative approach to consider this kind of behaviour, confront offending behaviour, and develop victim empathy as well as an appreciation for the consequences of actions. Staff will also provide pro-social role models.

Project summary
Education in Jersey is experiencing change. The Education Reform Programme, a cornerstone of the 2021 Government Plan, is now established and beginning to deliver on the recommendations of the Independent School Funding Review and the Big Education Conversation. In addition to this, a review of inclusion is being undertaken during the Summer Term 2021, with findings to be subsequently presented to the Minister. One of the main aims of the Education Reform Programme is to ensure a sustainable funding solution is achieved for the education system. This includes reforming the education funding formula and funding arrangements for children and young people with Special Educational Needs (SEN).
Although the Education Reform Programme will begin to look at structural changes to the system to make it more efficient and also deliver improved educational outcomes for children, continuing demographic change in a number of areas has led to a rise in pupil numbers that has put significant pressure on school budgets.
Demographic pressures exist in the following areas:
Primary education as a result of a demographic bulge that is due to reduce by 2025
Secondary education due to high pupil numbers resulting from the higher birth numbers experienced
in the early part of the 2010s transitioning from primary to more expensive secondary provision
Increased numbers attending Highlands College 16-18 provision
Higher numbers of children attending one of Jersey s special schools and provisions, including Mont
a L Abbe and La Sente schools and La Passerelle
Increased numbers of pupils with a Record of Need , therefore requiring additional specialist support.
Higher numbers of nursery children accessing 30 hours following policy change and additional costs
resulting from the new provider rate of £6.70hr
The Department for Children, Young People, Education and Skills maintains models that forecast requirements. However, these must be updated periodically to reflect variable factors such as pupil preferences, the rate of immigration and emigration, and the prevalence of young people with elevated levels of need. The last demographic update was provided for in the Government Plan 2020-23 and this funding reflects changes to the required level of resources based on the latest data, as well as impacts that were anticipated in earlier modelling and are only now translating into additional financial requirements.
The funding indicated above provides resource for nursery, primary and secondary education requirements as well as additional attendance at Highlands College. Funding related to SEN and Records of Need is being held centrally pending the completion of the Inclusion Review, which will have implications for how complex need is met and hence the associated financial implications.
Impact on sustainable wellbeing
This work fits with improving Community Wellbeing - the Quality of People s Lives, specifically through the following areas: All Children in Jersey Lead Healthy Lives and Mental Health & Wellbeing . This investment ensures schools are properly funded to enable the best outcomes for children to be
achieved.
This funding request impacts on the key areas of the Jersey Performance Framework, including:
All children in Jersey live healthy lives through the funding of nursery education. Sufficient early
years funding provides children with the best start to their education. This enables children to be more confident to access their learning from a younger age and impacts positively on a child s health, wellbeing, and their ability to form strong relationships. There is also evidence to show the importance of early education on strengthening parental engagement in a child s learning.
Investments made in early years education, to give all children the best start in life, have lasting and significant benefits. With a focus on the three prime areas of learning from the Early Years Foundation Stage curriculum - Communication and Language Development, Physical Development and Personal, Social and Emotional Development children will be supported to progress into primary education with confidence. Those firm foundations of early learning will become embedded. In addition, this will impact positively on a child s health, wellbeing and their ability to form strong relationships. Evidence shows that early engagement with parents can support a child s learning and development by strengthening the home learning environment.
All children in Jersey learn and achieve through the funding of primary, secondary and post 16
education. There are long-term benefits to investing in all phases of education, enabling children to confidently progress to further phases of education and access learning later through life. This not only enhances opportunities for the individual but has wider societal and economic benefits.
All children in Jersey are valued and involved through appropriate funding of schools, ensuring
equity and fairness. All children should have the same opportunity to achieve and, therefore, sufficient levels of funding for all phases of education and across all schools is essential. It is vitally important to avoid the widening of a learning and attainment gap, where some children prosper, and others do not. Children s rights must be recognised, and their voices heard.

Project summary
Covid-19 presented the most significant challenge that the Island has faced in generations. The impact of the pandemic has been felt by all Islanders and, for some, it will have lasting effects on their health, livelihood and/or social circumstances.
The Government is committed to investing to support the Island s recovery from the pandemic. Funding was already agreed in the Government Plan 2021-24 to fund projects aimed at facilitating the economic recovery, and investment has also been made to enable essential Government services to catch up
on lost activity. This investment is intended to provide a source of funding to enable recovery from the wider impacts on Islanders health and social wellbeing.
Whilst we know that the impact of the Covid-19 has been unequal, and that it has exacerbated a number of pre-existing areas of health and socio-economic weaknesses, the full consequences are still becoming known. Consistent with the approach taken for the economic recovery, this investment will therefore provide for a source of funding into 2023 that will allow Government to invest in a series of targeted interventions. Funding will also be made to support initiatives designed to improve the evidence-based and enhance Government s understanding of the impact of Covid-19 to ensure that both new and existing are projects well-targeted to supporting the Island s health and social recovery.

Project summary
Children s health needs have been increasing in recent years and the timely identification and treatment of conditions is crucial for children s long-term health management. There has been a 100% increase
in the identification of children s neurodevelopmental conditions. For example, in 2017, there were
109 children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), but by July 2021 that figure had increased to 428. Half of all mental health problems are established by the age of 14, with three quarters established by 24 years of age and there is strong evidence that early intervention to respond to and treat these conditions has a significant impact on preventing escalation and reducing the need for additional support requirements in adulthood.
Government s support for these types of need straddles multiple government departments and also involves voluntary and community sector partners. Investment was agreed as part of Government Plan 2021-24 within CYPES that aims to strengthen children s mental health services, focusing on early intervention and the Children and Adolescent Mental Health Service (CAMHS) community offer. At the time that investment was agreed, it was acknowledged that further work needed to be undertaken, particularly with Health and Community Services, to respond to children and young people with more complex mental health needs and the interfaces with wider health vulnerabilities. This children s health recovery business case identifies these broader requirements.
While children s health needs have been increasing, they have been significantly exacerbated by Covid-19. The pandemic is the biggest health crisis for generations, the enormity of its impact is only starting to be realised, with evidence of a significant decline in both the mental and physical health of the population. Given the requirement for prolonged closures of early years settings, schools, extra- curricular activities and the absence of short breaks for children with disabilities, plus the added financial burden of employment and housing vulnerabilities, many families are now experiencing a deterioration in their wellbeing.
This project directly addresses the increase in demand for children s health services including that which has arisen as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic. Resource is needed to manage the increase in children s, young people s and families health needs and to implement an integrated paediatric therapy and neurodevelopmental service to manage this more effectively moving forward.
To deliver on these requirements the Government will implement a children s health recovery plan. It will extend the current service models to create a comprehensive, integrated offer that reaches across health, social care, education and the voluntary sector consisting of the following:
Home Treatment and Liaison Team - Setting up a specialist Home Treatment and Liaison Team that will operate daily and provide an out of hours service. The aim of the team is to prevent children
and young people from having to go into hospital unless there is a medical need for treatment, for example, as a result of injury. The Team will be flexible and aim to support the child or young person in the location that is best for them whether that is at home, school, a GP surgery etc. In addition,
the team will provide a liaison service supporting the most vulnerable who become in-patients, providing a consistency of care and a multi-disciplinary approach in collaboration with in-patient staff. Overall, this service is expected to deliver improved outcomes for children and young people whilst simultaneously reducing the demand on hospital and other acute care capacity.
Perinatal mental health (PMH) - PMH problems are those which occur during pregnancy or in the
first few years following the birth of a child. Perinatal mental illness affects up to 20% of new and expectant parents and covers a wide range of conditions. If left untreated, mental health issues can have significant and long-lasting effects on the parent, the child, and the wider family. Specialist PMH services provide care and treatment for parents with complex mental health needs and support the developing relationship and bond between parent and baby. They also offer parents with mental health needs advice for planning a pregnancy. An integrated perinatal mental health service will be established that will reduce the longer-term impact of perinatal mental health on the child and their parent including the future potential for high-cost children s social care and/or adult statutory services. The service will be evidence-based and multi-agency, building on the network of providers that already exist in Jersey.
Neurodevelopmental service - this new service will be established to manage the increase in cases
that has developed due to Covid-19 and manage future assessments and treatments in a more integrated way. This will also include a health psychology offer, which is an area that is currently unsupported in paediatrics.
Child to Adult Mental Health Transition Pathway a new pathway will be implemented which will
provide a consistent point of contact and service offer for young people that still require support from adult services. This will ensure that young people are fully involved in decision making and deliver an integrated pathway that is able to support young people to successfully make the transition into adult mental health services whilst ensuring that the treatment provided is well-targeted to their needs.
Specialist medical capacity to support the introduction of each of the new services within this
project, additional medical leadership and oversight is required. Pediatricians, child psychiatrists and associate specialists will support the new pathways and provide out of hours cover.

generally increase demand for services.
Islanders with long-term health conditions enjoy a good quality of life this programme will be providing enhanced access to therapeutic services for people with long-term conditions. A particular area which has been impacted is the provision of services to children across the therapies, which could have far- reaching impacts if not addressed.

Project summary
The Covid-19 pandemic is considered a major disruptive event of this decade, affecting health and care systems worldwide. The pandemic has increased the influx of patients in hospitals, and healthcare organisations are simultaneously facing unprecedented constraints on their operational capacity due to the need to maintain infection control procedures and staff isolation requirements.
To respond to the unprecedented challenge presented by Covid-19, Health and Community Services (HCS) was required to adapt the profile of the services that could be offered during the pandemic, with much of the focus being on dealing with urgent rather than routine work as capacity has been restricted. This response manifested in the following challenges:
Routine services were suspended, and staff were re-deployed during the first wave to prepare for an
influx of Covid patients. The available bed base for elective work was reduced to enable treatment of Covid patients.
Routine services were suspended again during the second wave as the Department prepared for an
increase in Covid patients. The available capacity for elective work was reduced to an even greater extent than was experienced during the first wave.
Social distancing measures were introduced, which limited waiting areas and therefore reduced
capacity and throughput across services.
Infection prevention and control measures were introduced, which required additional cleaning,
lengthening the turnaround times for clinics and thereby restricting capacity.
Patient behaviour changed in primary and secondary care:
Throughout the pandemic, and particularly during lockdowns, patients reduced their reporting of
issues to their GP, which would ordinarily have resulted in a referral for hospital care. This created pent up demand in the system, which was released in bulk when restrictions eased causing waiting list issues.
Patients have been nervous to attend appointments, causing issues filling clinics and surgery lists,
reducing throughput and further increasing waiting lists.
With the exception of emergency cases, patients have been unable to access UK / off-Island services,
which has resulted in higher waiting times as access to off-Island services resumed.
Staffing levels have been affected either through sickness, stress, or lack of access to temporary off-
Island resources. This has sometimes caused a reduction the service offering and therefore increased backlogs.
The wider system of care has been affected by a drop in capacity, particularly social care, which has
been impacted by restrictions on the movement of staff between providers and has experienced difficulty obtaining staffing from off-Island due to Covid travel restrictions and Brexit.
The overall impact of these challenges has been to create waiting list pressures and to delay the provision of essential diagnostic and preventative services such as cancer screening. This investment is intended to substantially expand capacity in the affected services on a temporary basis to allow waiting lists for services to return to pre-Covid levels, and to temporarily increase the volume of preventative services in an effort to recover some of the output that has been lost due to the pandemic.
Impact on Sustainable Wellbeing
Community Health and Wellbeing
The programme contributes to the Jersey Performance Framework across all areas of the Health and wellbeing category.
Islanders benefit from healthy lifestyles delayed access to health care can affect people s lifestyles. For example, people who are currently waiting on the elective surgery waiting list typically have conditions affecting quality of life, e.g. hip, knee, or hernia issues, which can greatly affect people s quality of life if not addressed.
Islanders are protected against social and environmental health hazards Covid-19 has increased social isolation for some groups, resulting in increased cases of self-neglect. This programme seeks to proactively engage with the community to protect people from the erosion of social networks and the harm that has caused through the pandemic.

Project summary
The Covid-19 pandemic continues to be a global health emergency and a danger to the health and wellbeing of Islanders. Public health restrictions that have proven effective in managing the level of transmission in the community, but they have a profound economic impact that is not sustainable. The Covid-19 Vaccination Programme offers the Island the opportunity to manage the health risks presented by Covid-19 and successfully live with Covid-19 without the need for public health restrictions.
The Covid-19 vaccination programme was funded in the Government Plan 2021-24 and has been undertaken at pace during 2021. The programme is expected to have offered both doses of the Covid-19 vaccine to all Islanders aged over 18 by the end of 2021 and an initial first dose vaccine will have been offered to young people aged between 12 and 17 by the end of that year. Uptake amongst Islanders has been strong and has been supported by changes to the delivery model designed to increase take up rates, which has included the introduction of a walk-in facility and other flexible access options.
Current evidence suggests that a vaccine booster programme will be required to maintain the high level of protection currently afforded by the Covid-19 vaccines that have been delivered and/or to provide additional resilience against new variants. The Joint Committee on Vaccines and Immunisations is therefore currently recommending that provision is made for a vaccine booster programme although this remains under review as the international scientific consensus continues to evolve. A final decision will be taken in September 2021. The delivery of boosters is likely to commence in the third or fourth quarter of the year and take until the end of the first quarter of the following year to complete.
This investment will enable the provision of a booster dose to Islanders aged over 18 year of age during quarter one 2022 and a second booster, if one is needed, during quarter four 2022. While the first booster vaccines are being delivered to Islanders over the age of 18, funding is also provided
to complete the initial two-dose vaccination of young people between the ages of 12 and 17. In case vaccine boosters become necessary on an annual basis, funding is provided in reserves to enable a similar booster programme to be delivered for the remaining years of the Government Plan 2022-25.
The total population offered the first booster will be 85,779 and, as a consequence of the inclusion of 12 17-year-olds within the vaccination programme, the target population for any second booster, delivered in the latter part of 2022, will increase to 92,765.
Impact on Sustainable Wellbeing
Community Health and Wellbeing
Covid-19 still presents as a threat to the population of Jersey, particularly to those in high-risk groups such as the elderly, those over the age of 50 years, and those with underlying health conditions.
A booster vaccination will reduce the health risks presented by Covid-19 including the risk of hospitalisation. The availability of a safe and effective booster vaccine programme is currently expected
to be hugely important in the control of the pandemic on-Island.
Economic Wellbeing
The vaccine is the key to the Island s ability to reduce the economic impact of disruption brought about by the pandemic, which itself could affect the population s wellbeing.

Project summary
The timely provision of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) is essential to Government s Covid-19 response. At the start of the pandemic, global shortages of PPE were experienced that put pressure on Government to procure suitable quantities of the protective equipment necessary to support front line health and care services. While the flow of PPE was able to be maintained, the Government took the decision to reduce the supply chain risk associated surging PPE demand by maintaining a stock of PPE that would allow sufficient time for new shipments to be received even in a high-demand environment.
To accommodate the PPE stock, additional warehousing and logistics arrangements were put in place and funded in the Government Plan 2021-24. Given the inherent uncertainty about on-going PPE requirements at the time that Government Plan was lodged in Summer 2020 funding was provided
for one-year only pending a long-term solution. There is now an expectation that PPE will continue to be required over the medium-term in response to Covid-19 and that effective contingency planning should include a larger stock of medical PPE than was previously held. Moreover, additional warehouse capacity is required to enable storage of medical equipment from the now-decommissioned Nightingale Hospital.
This investment will enable a longer-term warehousing and logistics solution to be implemented under contract that will run until the end of March 2025 the commercial approach for which was determined following the completion of a competitive tender process in the March 2021.The intended solution will ensure that the Island has secure storage and suitable distribution arrangements for essential PPE stocks for the foreseeable future.

The provision of suitable PPE is crucial for ensuring continuity of safe health and social care provision while Covid-19 remains a risk to the health and wellbeing of Islanders.
As part of the appropriate management of the Covid-19 pandemic, access to PPE is essential for those most at risk the professionals working in the health and social care sectors. This is because these sectors are responsible for providing essential treatment and care for those who are either confirmed to have Covid-19, are symptomatic or are highly vulnerable. They are often in prolonged close contact with individuals who are symptomatic or particularly vulnerable to infection. It is therefore fundamental that health and care workers who are conducting these procedures have access to and supply of PPE so that they can do their job safely. By facilitating an adequate supply of PPE, this initiative therefore supports the delivery of safe and effective health care to Islanders.

Project summary
The Island s highly effective vaccination programme has substantially reduced the risk of serious illness presented by Covid-19. However, there are on-going risks that mean the public health and operational responses to Covid-19 will continue in the foreseeable future:
Some Islanders have underlying health conditions that prevent them from being vaccinated or mean
that the vaccine is not able to provide the same high levels of protection as it does for others
No vaccine is entirely effective meaning that some vaccinated Islanders will still contract the disease
and may require medical treatment
The potential for variants to develop that are more vaccine-resistant and therefore pose greater risk to
public health
To enable healthcare services to respond effectively to these residual risks, PPE in health and care settings is currently assumed to remain a requirement for the life of this Government Plan. The necessary public health responses required to respond to these risks, such as border and workforce testing, also require high levels of PPE consumption themselves.
A high degree of uncertainty remains around the precise PPE requirements and how widespread the need to continue using elevated levels of PPE will be. Assumptions have been made based on usage in 2021 and public health policy will continue to be closely monitored to enable changes to financial forecasts as Jersey s response, and that of the international community, evolves.

Project summary
The nature of Obstetrics and Gynaecological (O&G) services means that Jersey is able to place lower levels of reliance on UK specialist services as might be possible for other medical functions. Despite being a small community, Jersey must maintain access to sufficient range of specialists to meet the varied O&G requirements of the community. In recent years, reviews of the O&G service have identified opportunities to introduce changes to the model of care within the department that will enhance the standard of patient care it can deliver.
This project seeks to enhance the O&G services in line with the Royal College of Obstetrics and Gynaecology s (RCOG's) Manifesto for Change, which focuses on the following core areas:
Always put the patient first
Zero harm and patient safety
Creating outstanding leadership and working together as teams of professionals Regulation inspection and accountability
Metrics and outcomes
Consistent with the RCOG s Manifesto, this investment will increase clinical capacity at consultant and middle-grade doctor level as part of a wider project that seeks to deliver:
Clear departmental governance, including structure, strategy and documentary evidence of
processes and standards
Increased Consultant presence on the labour ward to increase the availability of specialist support
where necessary
Stronger clinical leadership on the labour ward and other clinical areas to enhance service delivery,
clinical processes and decision-making
Enhanced clinical education and support for middle grade doctors, including with second stage
management, with a view to reducing the currently high Caesarean section rate
Strengthening of the clinical audit programme, datix management, and process for learning from
incidents
The implementation of structure care pathways for early pregnancy complications The development of specialised antenatal services
Overall, this initiative will allow HCS to take a major step to improve the quality-of-service delivery, reduce the number of serious incidents, provide more timely access to secondary care and improve patient safety.

Project summary
Justice and Home Affairs (JHA) requires a range of specialist vehicles within the Ambulance Service and Fire and Rescue Service to deliver essential services to Islanders.
As part of the Government s strategy to centralise the procurement and management of fleet assets under Jersey Fleet Management (JFM), the model for vehicle replacement in JHA has shifted from departmental capital requirements to on-going revenue expenditure for vehicle leases through JFM.
The transition to this new model has occurred in stages. The first stage is now complete and a proportion of vehicles are managed through lease contracts with JFM, ensuring best value through the specialist management and maintenance that JFM can provide.
In order to accomplish stage two, involving the transfer of the remaining fleet to JFM, this request for revenue funding will enable leases to be entered into with JFM. These leases are required to ensure JHA is able to maintain a safe and reliable, fit for purpose fleet of emergency, critical and specialised vehicles, which is essential in maintaining the Department s operational resilience and enabling a prompt response to Islanders when emergencies arise.
This investment is split between funding for the Ambulance Service and Health & Community Services (HCS) requirements, and funding for Fire & Rescue Service requirements.
The requirement for replacement vehicles follows a review of the overall fleet that considered the Services needs and identified some aging assets as outdated and in need of replacement. This review also sought to ensure that assets are used in the most efficient and sustainable manner including shared use where practicable and the moving of fleet between departments. As part of the on-going management of fleet requirements, there will be regular reviews of fleet requirements over the course of the Government Plan 2022-25 as leases end to ensure efficient and effective fleet management.
Investment will enable the replacement of emergency and specialist vehicles to ensure the continuation of critical service provision for the Services emergency response, ensuring the fleet maintains the required advancements in technology that help improve safe service delivery and at the same time support improvements in the Services environmental impact.
Impact on Sustainable Wellbeing
The provision of an emergency and critical care vehicle fleet directly supports, and is fundamental to, Health and Wellbeing and Safety and Security sub-areas of the Jersey Performance Framework. An improved fleet will ensure we are able to respond quickly, effectively and safely when required, using advancements in technology that help improve safe service delivery and at the same time support improvements in the Services environmental impact.
Community wellbeing
By utilising the latest technological advances in vehicle design JHA will be helping to ensure Islanders are protected against social and environmental health hazards in the future when an emergency response needs to be activated. Reducing emissions is a key consideration during fleet replacement.

Project summary
This funding will build the business case for a team of Specialist Paramedics and identify the appropriate resource profile for the Ambulance Service for the future. Funding will be used for the detailed analysis of Ambulance data over recent years to identify when a specialist paramedic response could have prevented the need for a double crewed ambulance, helping to reduce pressure on the emergency ambulance service and reducing the number of patients admitted to the Emergency Department in line with the Jersey Care Model. A workforce review will be carried out to help identify the Service s needs and the best way to help meet or reduce the increasing demand on emergency ambulances.
This Service aims to provide alternate and more appropriate pathways for patients who do not require admission to the emergency department and would receive an improved service in the community, with the right offering available, in conjunction with Health & Community Services (HCS). The analysis will assist JHA to identify conditions that can be better supported through community health care provision, ensuring the right service can be provided at the right place and time. This requires the Ambulance Service to provide further analysis of its call data to ensure future resourcing models provide the most appropriate level of care in the community by ambulance services and do not duplicate other health services on offer.
There has been a further rise in demand for ambulance services over the past year and current resources are likely to be insufficient to meet the increasing levels of demand. This approach will enable understanding of where the increase in demand is coming from and what type of resource will best help meet that demand, enabling strategy development to manage the rise in calls most appropriately. By providing the right level of care at the right place and right time will ensure we provide the most appropriate patient management, putting the patient at the centre of care.

Project summary
The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) is carrying out work on international tax reform. This comprises two pillars which deal with the tax challenges arising from digitalisation (Pillar 1) and proposals for ensuring that large multinational enterprises pay agreed minimum effective taxation on cross-border profits (Pillar 2).
On 18 May 2021, the European Commission published a Communication on Business Taxation in the 21st Century which proposes that once Pillar 2 has been transposed into EU law through an EU Directive, the Code of Conduct Group (CoCG) will introduce implementation of Pillar 2 as an additional criterion used for the assessment of third countries in the EU listing process.
The OECD proposals are highly technical international tax frameworks that are being developed in
a very complex global policy environment. They require careful and detailed ongoing monitoring, engagement and risk management to ensure that Jersey s future economic growth and the Island s international reputation is not adversely affected by any changes. This project would fund specialist work in international taxation to safeguard Jersey s interests through the first phase of the Government of Jersey s response to this work.
Impact on Sustainable Wellbeing
Economic business environment
The OECD s Pillar 2 proposal is a requirement for jurisdictions to implement measures which would see large multinational enterprises paying a global minimum effective rate of corporate tax. It is likely that the implementation of Pillar 2 will become an EU Code of Conduct listing criterion for jurisdictions such as Jersey. This investment will enable the Island to appropriately respond to the intended provisions in a way that supports Jersey s economic interests and international reputation.

The financial services industry remains the key driver of Jersey s economy employing the largest number of islanders of any single industry. The requirement to implement international standards,
such as those set by the FATF are critical to ensure that Jersey remains a well-respected international finance centre and retains access to global markets. Investment will be made in key authorities based
in Government, Law Enforcement and Prosecution to strengthen Jersey s defences against financial crime. Resource will particularly work on enhancing the islands identification of risks faced by the finance industry and work with both the industry and the authorities to co-ordinate a more developed understanding of risk and implementation of robust mitigation measures. Authorities such as Jersey s Financial Intelligence Unit will be strengthened to enhance outreach to assist in identification of risks and with resource to develop analysis of suspicion of financial crime. The FIU, Law Enforcement and Prosecution authorities will be provided with resource to significantly enhance international co-operation efforts working with overseas partners to exchange financial intelligence and bring financial criminals
to justice. The Economic Crime and Confiscation Unit will be further strengthened in order to ensure
it has adequate resources to prosecute the most complex and cross-border financial crime cases. Overall, investment in these areas is intended to ensure Jersey fulfils its international commitments and is regarded as a well-regulated financial centre with a long term and sustainable future and a robust regime preventing against financial crime.

Project summary
The Regulation Directorate in Infrastructure, Housing and Environment (IHE) provides critical protection for the Island s built and natural environment, as well as citizen centric services such as the protection of housing standards, food standards and public health services, and the enablement of new infrastructure and facilities.
The Comptroller & Auditor General s (C&AG) 2020 report into regulatory functions use of enforcement powers highlighted that the Directorate needs to invest more resources and support a culture change centred around engaging with citizens more effectively and reducing its tendency to use enforcement powers.
The C&AG Report highlights the need for substantive cultural, legal and procedural changes to compliance and the use of enforcement powers of Regulatory functions, which requires resourcing to enable true transformational change across the Directorate.
Additional resourcing is intended to enable the delivery of regulation that is more responsive, agile and resilient to respond to Islanders needs and changing expectations. This investment supports the Government s strategic objectives to drive more efficient working and improved operational delivery through a One Regulator model designed to be more joined-up with a consistent approach to regulatory services. This includes the aim to increase commerciality and potential for future cost recovery or cost-neutral operations.
Additional resources will be allocated across the following areas:
Environment and Consumer Protection Team additional resources will support officers in
designated roles within Public Health and Nuisance that have historically been dealt with by multi- disciplinary officers. Challenges over the past year have evidenced that this essential work needs to be conducted by specialist officers carrying out pro-active public health campaign work with
a community welfare focus. More resources will also be dedicated to community nuisance, given increasing community demand that is partly linked to people spending more time at home due to homeworking.
Development and Land Team funding will provide additional planning officers and enable long- standing temporary agency staff to be recruited on permanent basis. More resources are required
in order to cope with the high levels of planning applications, resulting from and supporting the Island s economic recovery. Customer expectations are high, as these projects provide the essential buildings required by our community such as housing, hospital, and school improvements. Substantial additional demand has been placed on development approvals as consequence of pressing demand to expand the Island s housing stock and the Government s own ambitious capital programme, which includes strategically important developments that require planning and building permission.
Historic and Natural Sites of Special Interest additional support for the listing of protected trees
and other important protected sites. The new Tree Strategy, as part of the Carbon Neutral Strategy,
will also bring about new regulatory regime to protect and manage the Island s Tree stock, and this requires resourcing for ongoing regulation.
Statutory Reform - an additional post will support statutory reforms and a charges review, which
will enable a comprehensive response to the C&AG s recommendations in respect of legal and procedural transformation and will support the development of new income streams consistent with the ambition to develop a cost-neutral Regulation Directorate.

Project summary
The Food Safety (Jersey) Law has been in place since 1966 and legislation on Housing Standards has been in place since 2018.
An updated food safety law is now in draft to reflect modern practices, which include provisions to introduce licencing of food operators. Similarly, the Housing Standards legislation makes provision to introduce a licencing scheme for rented dwellings.
The intention is that both schemes, if approved by the States Assembly and implemented, would be on a cost neutral basis. As a result, the cost of activities surrounding the enforcement of these laws would be recovered through a charge on regulated businesses. The intended charges were anticipated to give rise to income for the Department of £1 million. The additional incremental cost of administering the Law was forecast to be £200,000 so the expected additional income allowed the Department to propose a net-saving of £800,000 within the budget for the existing environmental health team. This saving was accepted by the States Assembly when it approved in the MTFP 2016-2019 and it was built into the IHE budget in Government Plan 2020-23 and Government Plan 2021-2024.
However, as recently as 20 July 2021 the States Assembly rejected Regulations as a mechanism
to introduce a charge resulting in a need for an additional £1 million to enable the Department to successfully regulate the private rental market under the Public Health and Safety (Rented Dwellings) (Jersey) Law 2018, and to restore funding for the pre-existing environmental health team, which had previously been given up as savings on the assumption new charges would be approved.
This project will result in the Department being able to continue its current work which includes: Inspection of food premises
Examination of food imports
Provision of export health certificates for products of animal origin
Continuation of the Eat Safe scheme
Essential inspection of rented dwellings to ensure that homes are safe
Resolution of housing and tenancy related complaints
The administration of the voluntary Rent Safe scheme
Seeking compliance on residential tenancy matters
Impact on Sustainable Wellbeing
Community wellbeing:
Improvements to housing standards have clear links to children and families long term physical and
mental health outcomes. These modest minimum standards tackle very real issues surrounding damp and mould growth, excess cold, asbestos, carbon monoxide, overcrowding, security, light and noise, hygiene conditions, sanitation, water supplies, electrical and fire hazards. Work in these areas is vital to reduce accidents, injury and poor long-term outcomes.
The Eat Safe scheme drives up food standards reducing risks of food poisoning and other related
health issues and is an important driver for raising food standards within the hospitality sector, where the display of their star rating is mandatory.
Economy wellbeing:
Investment will help to ensure that landlords meet minimum standards when providing properties to
let. This would ensure that tenants live in properties that are safe. There is diversity in the quality of provision and this investment will ensure a modest minimum standard is available to all
Identification, acceptable reduction or elimination of housing hazards has a direct link to a reduction in
costs on health services and society as a whole. Residents can stay in their homes longer and suffer fewer physical and / or mental health related issues which would require expensive intervention
Driving up food standards promotes Jersey as an excellent food destination
Illness and injuries relating to poor housing and food operating conditions leads to increased absence
from work which increases health and social security costs
Environmental wellbeing:
Enforcing housing standards leads to an improvement in energy consumption where properties must
be adequately capable of being heated and defects which waste energy such as drafts, structural issues, damp and mould must be addressed.
The Rent Safe scheme has direct links to energy efficiency. 5 stars are only awarded to properties
that have a range of energy efficient measures in place.

Project summary
Statistics Jersey will restart the Living Cost and Household Income Survey from September 2021 (the previous survey was stopped prematurely due to Covid-19 restrictions on carrying out surveys in people s homes).
This survey measures household income and expenditure over a 12-month period. It will enable production of income distribution analyses for the first time since 2016, which will enable progress on CSP 4.2 (reducing income inequality and improve the standard of living by improving social inclusion) to be assessed, therefore feeding into government policy on measures to address relative low income (including social housing and welfare measures) and benefitting Islanders.
The aim is to produce sufficient income distribution analyses to be available in time for the next Common Strategic Policy process in 2022, to support the next government in its priority setting. This will also respond to amendment 17 of the Government plan 2021-2024.
The 12 months of expenditure data from the survey will also tallow the basket of goods for the Retail Price Index to be updated and made representative of what Islanders spend their money on as the current basket of goods was last updated at the start of 2018 (based on 2014/15 survey data, published in 2016). This update will provide more accurate estimates of inflation especially for goods and services with rapidly changing prices (e.g. telecommunications) thereby supporting CSP 3.1 (Create a sustainable, vibrant economy and skilled local workforce for the future by delivering an economic framework to improve productivity). The Retail Price Index is fundamental to government fiscal policy and to delivering an economy in balance between growth and inflation.
This project is a one-off requirement spanning the years 2021, 2022, and 2023. Beyond that there is no ongoing requirement until the Government of Jersey decides that it wishes to repeat the survey in future years.
A revised Living Cost and Household Income Survey will allow government to more accurately: Measure/monitor trends in income distribution / inequality
Evaluate policy impacts and make better policy decisions
Measure inflation by allowing for the basket of goods used in the calculation of the Retail Price s Index
to be updated to better reflect current spending pattern.

Project summary
We will provide funding to support a review of workers rights and to provide a publicity campaign for employers and employees
The review will help to make sure that Jersey s employment law continues to provide suitable protection for workers in context of modern working practices, which include the use of zero-hour contracts.
The twice-yearly labour market report identifies that around 10% of local jobs are currently reported as zero-hour contracts. Survey data indicates that most workers are satisfied with their zero-hour contracts. However, some workers experience difficulties in seeking loans or mortgages and the nature of a zero- hour contract may not provide the worker with a stable financial position.
The States Assembly (P.32/2021) agreed an allocation of funding in 2022. Further to this decision of the States Assembly, the Minister for Social Security will be undertaking a review of employment legislation to ensure that sufficient measures are available to protect employees from any challenges caused
by the use of zero-hour contracts. The review will also consider other types of modern employment practice associated with precarious working, seeking to establish a local labour market that embodies good working conditions and fair remuneration. Where necessary, the review will also identify where the regulation of employment may require strengthening.
Funding will also support a publicity campaign to advise employers and employees of workers rights under zero-hour contracts.
This project will benefit Islanders:
By ensuring that workers are well protected in respect of modern employment practices By supporting an inclusive and fair labour market
By improving knowledge amongst businesses and workers of workers rights under different types of
contract
Impact on Sustainable Wellbeing
Economic Wellbeing jobs and growth
Providing appropriate rights to employees is vital not only to the wellbeing of the individual worker, but to the wellbeing and operation of the economy as a whole.
From the point of view of the worker, the review will help to ensure that individuals are well protected in respect of modern employment practices. This will help to ensure that individuals have control over their weekly income to allow them to plan their household expenses.
Businesses and workers will gain a better understanding of their rights and responsibilities under the local employment law. This will help to reduce the risk of labour disputes and help to maintain steady
incomes for both worker and business.
A fair labour market which acknowledges and respects the rights of workers is a fundamental to a sustainable economic model.

Project summary
Pumping stations are the mechanism by which the sewage and rainwater are transported from the source to the treatment plant, following which they can be processed and ultimately safely disposed of.
Jersey currently has 108 pumping stations across the Island that transport foul water to the sewage treatment plant in Bellozanne. In recent years, the volume of foul water that needs to be pumped and processed has increased considerably.
The main reasons for this are as follows:
increase in the population which results in an a larger volume of foul water needing to be treated.
On average, the population has increased by 1,000 people over the last 10 years each producing on average 58,400 cubic metres of sewage a year
increase in the number of households connected to the mains and therefore needing the sewage to
be removed. Currently 92% of homes are now connected to the network.
increase in the volume of rainfall by 14.7% due to climatic change resulting in significant surface water
ingress to the foul pumping network and increased pumping costs in the surface water drainage network. The increase in sustained periods of rain puts additional pressure on the network as high volumes back up throughout parts of the system.
This increase in the volume of liquid waste to be processed has two main consequences:
an increase in the volume of foul water creates higher demand on the pumping stations which in turn
leads to an increase in both maintenance and utility costs
sudden large volumes due to substantial and continued rainfall results in additional pressure on the pumping stations. In order to avoid pollution incidents, the excess high-water influx is transported
by tankers from the pumping stations, prioritising those which are both near capacity and in close proximity to either a natural water supply or coastal waters, direct to the sewage treatment works. This again incurs an additional cost.
The Department is unable to absorb the additional liquid waste processing costs and consequently requires increased funding to enable the processing of the additional volume of foul surface water and sewage produced.
Impact on Sustainable Wellbeing
Environmental wellbeing natural environment
Providing the correct funding to operate the pumping stations in Jersey reduces the risk of pollution incidents as it allows excess foul water to be managed and enables high levels of pumping station maintenance to reduce the risk of failure. It would also ensure that sewage is able to be promptly transported to the sewage treatment works, therefore maintain the quality of the natural environment.
Economic wellbeing
Given the connection between the Island s sewage system and its beaches and marine environment, the effective management of liquid waste supports the Island s visitor economy by enabling the maintenance of the good quality water and pleasant beaches that are a key attraction for visitors to the Island.

1,250 | - | - | - |
Project summary
Waste activities and waste management businesses are governed by the Waste Management (Jersey) Law 2005. The Law aims to protect people and the environment from the potentially polluting impacts of dealing with waste.
One of the types of waste that needs to be dealt with is hazardous waste. The primary source of this waste is from the construction industry. The department has no control over the volume of waste produced as it directly correlates with construction industry activity on sites that involve hazardous waste. There is a charge levied per tonne of hazardous waste, which gives rise to significant fluctuations in the level of income generated by the department depending on the building developments that are proceeding.
As a result, it is difficult to budget for the significant swings in the volume of waste, which then has resultant impacts on the ability to effectively manage resources. Between 2017 and 2019 the volume of hazardous wastes ranged between 21,000 tonnes and 71,000 tonnes. Income budgets for Government Plan 2020-23 and Government Plan 2021-24 assumed high levels of waste would continue to be produced in the near-term. However, actual tonnage for 2020 and 2021 has been below 3,000 tonnes. This has left a significant budget deficit that cannot be absorbed by the department as it is not linked to any offsetting potential to reduce cost due to processing lower volumes.
It is now anticipated that hazardous waste volumes will remain low for the life of the Government Plan 2022-25 and accordingly additional funding is required to allow for lower expected income receipts. Should income exceed expectations the associated surplus income would be returned to the Treasury and thereby reduce Government s overall net expenditure.
Hazardous waste processing will form part of a wider review of Waste Management arrangements that will culminate in a proposal to operate waste management as a trading operation, which will be included in Government Plan 2023-26.
Impact on Sustainable Wellbeing
Appropriately resourcing waste disposal will improve both the natural environment and the health and wellbeing of islanders by ensuring that waste is disposed of effectively, efficiently and in accordance with local and international regulations and legislation.
Effective waste disposal is fundamental to ensuring that the Island s natural environment is protected, and that Islanders benefit from a clean and pleasant atmosphere. Responsible waste disposal ensures that potential pollutants are removed from the waste and dealt with safely. Investment will protect against both environmental health hazards and the aesthetic of the natural environment resulting from inadequate waste disposal or fly tipping .
This project will ensure that waste is handled according to the waste strategy and hierarchy, reduce, reuse, recycle which is reliant on community involvement and participation giving Islanders a sense of pride to play their part in sustaining the planet.

Project Summary
The Our Hospital Major Project is the most significant infrastructure investment that Jersey has made in generations. The Government s financing strategy includes the intention to issue debt in order to fund the construction of Our Hospital. Subject to the approval of the States Assembly, debt will be issued in 2022 and interest costs will be incurred for the remainder of the Government Plan 2022-25.
This investment provides for cost of issuance and subsequent interest payments. These costs will be met through future gains made on the Strategic Reserve.
Impact on Sustainable Wellbeing
Community Wellbeing
The construction of Our Hospital will have a transformative impact on healthcare provision in Jersey, providing modern fit-for-purpose facilities that are capable supporting new delivery models consistent with the aspirations of the Jersey Care Model and innovative digital health services that will improve the quality, efficiency, and customer centricity of the Island s health and care system.
This investment will contribute to the delivery of this vision by ensuring that sufficient financing is in place to deliver the Our Hospital project within its intended timescales. The Government s debt strategy also enables the Jersey is able retain access to the Strategic Reserve, which enables the Island to benefit from a stronger credit rating and is able to preserve financial capacity for strategic financing challenges that may emerge in the future.

Project summary
Import Goods and Services Tax (GST) relief of £6.75 is currently applied on imported goods valued less than £135 if they are shipped to consumers for personal use. This relief will be reduced on 1 January 2023 to £3, equivalent to goods with a value of £60, in order to allow for a more level playing field between overseas online traders and local businesses.
The change is expected to raise c.£1.3 million in additional GST receipts, but it will result in more consignments detained by the Jersey Customs & Immigration Service (JCIS) pending formal customs clearance and a significant rise in enquiries. Therefore, JCIS will require additional staff to administer the revised de-minimis.
These staff will be deployed in one of three core roles:
- Call Advisers based at Customer and Local Services
- Office Assistants responding to more complex enquiries based at JCIS, and
- A warehouse officer responsible for the storage and disposal of goods based at JCIS
JCIS also requires suitable premises to accommodate goods that are taken under customs control pending disposal. Equally, as nearly all payments of GST are made using debit or credit cards, additional card processing costs will accrue in Treasury and Exchequer.
Additional resources and enhanced digital provision to the goods control system (CAESAR) are required to enable the frictionless movement of goods through the border where the GST has been pre-paid. Ultimately this will benefit a range of stakeholders including:
online traders because they can guarantee delivery within certain timescales with confidence;
consumers who will receive their goods in good time without having to submit customs declarations; carriers which don t have to find space for goods awaiting clearance;
JCIS which no longer needs to administer the collection of small amounts of GST, and
Treasury which receives cost-effective direct remittance of import GST.
After considering all of the necessary costs to collect and process this additional GST, the net revenue generated is estimated to be c.£1 million.

Project summary
The Government purchases insurance on behalf of the States and associated entities. It accounts for this activity through an Insurance Fund, which was set up in 2013 and operates in accordance with the Public Finances (Jersey) Law 2019. This fund is designed to provide cover for existing and historical claims as well as an estimate of potential claims arising from current and previous activity. The Law requires the cost of insurance to be recharged to those bodies benefitting from the arrangements. The procurement of general and medical malpractice insurance is designed to obtain economies of scale from the insurance market and to avoid individual bodies obtaining duplicate or inadequate cover.
The insurance market has entered a particularly challenging period for the first time in decades. As such, the existing insurance budget had to be increased on a number of occasions during 2019 and 2020 due to unforeseen pressures impacting the Government s general and medical malpractice insurance programmes. For example, whilst premiums for some classes of insurance such as motor fell during 2019/20, the majority such as property liability, employee liability, cyber, and officials indemnity have increased significantly. In some cases, increases have been over 50%. The impact of Covid-19 and other global incidents are beginning to impact not only the cost of premiums, but the extent of the cover offered in the marketplace. Exclusions in policies, particularly relating to specific infectious diseases and cyber matters, are now increasingly common. Government s insurance brokers survey the market on a quarterly basis and have indicated that this upward trend is expected to continue.
An analysis of premiums shows a 57% increase between 2018 and 2020 across the whole portfolio. Further increases are likely post 2021 with estimates built into this bid. Insurance is closely aligned to our risk management approach, and we are seeing a range of additional risks being identified that will need careful management in the future. Government has historically received a rebate on our premiums for good claims history. One major claim arising as a result of Covid-19 during 2020 has eliminated this rebate and is forecast to adversely impact future premium renewals.
The insurance team have set in train a review of our current cover and premiums, with the assistance of our insurance brokers. The insurance programme is due for full re-tender in 2022. Investment will enable the Treasury and Exchequer to meet substantially increased insurance premium costs over the life of the Government Plan 2022-25 and provide additional resources to the Insurance Fund to reflect the future cost of existing long-standing claims.

Project summary
Jersey s Defence Contribution covers all costs incurred for and by the Jersey Field Squadron Royal Engineers (Militia). This arrangement is governed by the Inter-Governmental Agreement (IGA) that was established in 1981 between the then States of Jersey and the UK Home Office.
The IGA splits Jersey s contribution into two core areas. The first is for all costs associated with the Jersey Field Squadron (JFS) incurred through the Ministry of Defence (MOD) system and covers elements such as staff costs, equipment costs, and training. The second element covers all on-Island costs and includes elements such as maintenance of on-Island premises, administration staff costs and utilities. Since 1981, inflation and costs have increased and therefore the Defence Contributions costs have also increased.
The £1 million budget for the JFS has remained static for several years and not kept pace with the evolving MOD equipment costs, changes to overhead allocation, changes to the Armed Service s Pension Scheme, and increasing costs to maintain the Field Squadron s historically significant heritage assets. A detailed review of the financial position has identified a requirement for additional funding over the period of the Government Plan 2022-25 to ensure the Island is able to continue meeting its commitments to UK defence and to maintain the Squadron s on-Island premises.
Specifically, additional funding is required to deliver the following:
meet the Island s obligation to fund the revised Armed Forces pension scheme commitments, which
have increased significantly in recent years following changes to the overall compensation provided to members of the armed forces
support changes to the calculation of military overheads, which the Island is required to meet under
the IGA
Impact on Sustainable Wellbeing

JFS is the oldest sub-unit within the British Army dating back to the 1300s. The JFS has a responsibility to ensure that it exists in its capacity of a deployable force either on-Island or overseas. It also has a responsibility to maintain its assets which include the Le Quesne Barracks. As the only military formation within the Channels Islands, the JFS s historic links and reputation are significant and the JFS has a responsibility to ensure that this is maintained.

Project summary
The Jersey Police Authority (JPA) is an independent body established under Article 4 of the States of Jersey Police Force Law 2012 to ensure that the States of Jersey Police (SOJP):
is efficient and effective
delivers the key aims and objectives set by the Minister for Home Affairs (MHA), within the resources
available
acts in accordance with any management policies set by the MHA
The JPA is responsible for seeking from the MHA any additional resources required to enable the SOJP to deliver its key aims and objectives. Additionally, the JPA is responsible for making arrangements to obtain the views of local people about the policing of their area and the co-operation of local people in preventing crime.
The JPA meets with the senior management team of the SOJP to:
agree on the content of the Annual Policing Plan for the forthcoming year to ensure that policing
priorities accurately reflect the needs of the community.
discuss the contents of the Annual Report which will contain the performance statistics from the
previous year s business plan as well as highlighting features of the SOJP successes and challenges. This provides an opportunity to learn from experiences and ensures that the SOJP can continue to challenge themselves to improve future performance.
Additionally, meetings with SOJP senior management team occur quarterly to further assess in detail the performance against the objectives within the Annual Policing Plan as well as discussing financial analysis, operational and non-operational performance statistics.
The Chair of the JPA regularly meets with the Chief Officer of Police and the MHA to discuss ongoing Island matters including policies, business decisions and future policing requirements.
The requirement for change:
A review by the Comptroller and Auditor General (C&AG) into the Governance of the States of Jersey Police published in March 2018 recommended a number of changes to further enhance the governance arrangements, and these recommendations have all been accepted by the Minister for Home
Affairs. The 2021 amendments (article 28b) to the States of Jersey Police Force Law 2012 realign the governance powers and duties of the MHA, the JPA and the Chief Officer of SOJP.
The additional funding will enable the JPA to fulfil its obligations to:
arrange for the SOJP to be inspected by a suitably qualified independent body at regular intervals.
Under the new arrangements there is a requirement for a new-type Policing Plan which will be more
far-reaching, as it will consider not only the next year in detail, but also the three years following in more general terms.
consider how the SOJP objectives could be met most efficiently and effectively from their budget,
and that consideration of resources and outcomes will constitute advice to the Minister from the JPA on the SOJP budget requirements.
ensure continuity and succession planning of some of the JPA s Executive Officer functions as per the
legislative requirements.
produce a more accessible communication strategy to increase public confidence in the SOJP
expand upon the existing national collaboration to ensure best practice with other Chief Executives
and Home Office colleagues of similar non-Home Office funded police governance organisations. This is a more significant requirement for a Jersey based regulatory body as the ability to collaborate locally is very limited.
comply with its statutory functions and reduce the any associated reputational risk to Jersey.

Project summary
TETRA is the network that provides Pan-Island critical communication coverage. It supports all the Island s emergency services as well as any handheld radio communication devices used by other infrastructure partners. It has provided the Islands communication coverage since 1996. The TETRA communications system is provided by Motorola (UK) through JT. The Service User Agreement and support contract with Motorola will end on 31st December 2025 and work has already been initiated to procure a new critical communications network for 2025 onwards.
Funding is required to maintain the critical communications network until the contracted end date in 2025. The network allows emergency service personnel to communicate on a standalone frequency and is separate to the mobile communications infrastructure. Failure to maintain this network before
a viable replacement is available in 2025 would jeopardise the health and safety of colleagues in
the Island s emergency services as well as the welfare of Islanders. The operational effectiveness of emergency services would be detrimentally affected as well as the ability to respond to incidents which concern public safety and the prevention of crime.

Project summary
Events in 2020 placed significant pressure on Revenue Jersey s customer-facing services. Throughout the year, the impact of the pandemic on the economy substantially increased customer enquiries and the peculiarities of Covid-19 s effect on businesses and livelihoods led to surge in complex cases. At the same time, the transition from the prior-year basis to the current-year basis also led to a further significant increase in customer service interactions as the tax affairs of tens of thousands of Islanders were revised.
The combined impact of these changes resulted in a c.80% increase in workloads during 2020 and extraordinarily high levels of enquiries persisted into 2021. Despite efforts being made to reprioritise staff to meet the increased customer service needs, Revenue Jersey has limited capacity and, as a consequence, response times and customer service standards were affected by the inability to respond to such a large shift in demand.
Additional resources have been deployed in 2021 to clear the backlog in cases that has resulted from the impact of 2020 and continuing high demand. However, there is a need for further investment
in 2022 in support of a recovery in customer service standards and to address the full number of outstanding cases.
The forthcoming introduction of independent taxation will impact the tax affairs of Islanders to a similar extent to the shift from prior-year basis to current-year basis. It is therefore expected that this transition will give rise to a further surge in customer enquiries so additional resources in 2022 and 2023 are required to enable Revenue Jersey to maintain the level of customer services that Islanders expect and to ensure the timely and effective administration of tax law.
Impact on Sustainable Wellbeing
Community and Economic Wellbeing
This investment will ensure an adequate level of resources in place to deliver essential increases in service levels to maintain the timeliness of Government s response to tax enquiries and assessments. This supports the economic wellbeing of Islanders by ensuring their tax enquires are promptly resolved and their tax affairs appropriately settled.
Improvements in customer service delivery will also ensure that the appropriate amount of revenue is generated in accordance with the Law to fund Government activities, and thereby support the wellbeing of the community through the provision of essential public services.
Investment in Revenue Jersey s customer services will also help to maintain Jersey s international reputation as a capable and properly resourced administration with associated impacts on the economy. In particular, the Island s financial services industry.

Nevertheless, it faces the same increasing number of governance obligations as a larger department which may have the scale to find staff who can take on this work. It has also become essential to implement processes for the efficient and effective management of information held electronically (currently, 2.1 million items are held on the department s network alone, with a further 4,000 being added every week). This small investment is required to provide an additional member of staff (1.0 FTE) to support information management and cyber security within the Judicial Greffe.
With the increasing complexity of litigation, the increase in the number of requests under the Freedom of Information (Jersey) Law 2011, and the increase in the number of subject data access requests under the Data Protection (Jersey) Law 2018, it has become essential to further strengthen processes for the efficient and effective management of information held electronically in the Department. The volume of activity that must now be delivered and managed is now such that a dedicated resource is required to provide the essential support for information management and cyber security as well as delivering improved compliance with legal and corporate obligations, better and more efficient customer service, and improved document management and information retrieval.

As such, the Public Registry oversees and manages the collection of Stamp Duty in accordance with the Stamp Duties and Fees (Jersey) Law 1998.
With rising workloads and continued growth in the property market, there is a need to increase the level of resource available to operate the Public Registry. Despite the pandemic, between 2019 and 2020, there was a 12% increase in the number of transactions through the Public Registry Online system
the majority of which are relied upon in title searches. The Public Registry currently has 2.5 full-time equivalent employees (FTE) and rising transaction volumes mean it is increasingly difficult to deliver the level of service required to meet customer expectations and ensure the efficient collection of Stamp Duty.

Project Summary
The Probation Service is a department of the Royal Court that provides assessments for the courts and supervision services for offenders in the community and custody. Its work also extends to working with children in the court system and those who have been sanctioned via the Parish Hall Enquiry system.
The Probation Service will commission an inspection by Her Majesty s Inspectorate of Probation (HMIP). As a key agency in the Island s criminal justice system, it is important that the work of the Service is inspected in order to receive assurances it is effective, efficient and provides value for money. Apart
from examining strategic and operational performance, an inspection can also provide the public
and other stakeholders reassurance that the Service is committed to transparency and remains open to developing its practice. Seen through this lens there is an important reputational component to commissioning a full inspection.
Investment will enable delivery of the inspection, which is anticipated to be undertaken in the first quarter of 2023. The inspection will relate to the Service s work in the criminal justice arena and will principally examine the management of the Service, the strategic context, partnership arrangements, assessment of offenders, management of orders, and the management of risk both in terms of safeguarding and public protection.
Impact on Sustainable Wellbeing

The inspection will focus on the Probation Service s contribution to the community in respect of reducing offending and promoting safeguarding and public protection. A high achieving Probation Service will make a positive contribution to the quality of people s lives. In relation to its work with children, the inspection would be required to comment about the extent to which the Service s work is consistent
with the government priority of putting children first.
Measures would include:
successful completion of orders reduction in risk of reoffending effective safeguarding measures
access to health and education services that reduce the risks of a child leaving education without
employment or training.
Similar criteria will be used to inspect the work of the Service with adults. This will focus on reducing the risk of reoffending, the effectiveness of public protection and safeguarding work and the promotion of
healthy lifestyles including assistance with substance misuse. Another key area that will be considered will be the Service s work with victims and to gauge satisfaction rates with the restorative justice initiative.
In summary, the inspection will focus on benchmarking the contribution of the Service in its work to enhance the safety of the island by working effectively with offenders.

Project Summary
The Economic Crime and Confiscation Unit (ECCU) within the Law Officers Department is an instrumental part of the Island s framework for combatting financial crime. Since its inception in 2017, the ECCU has established a track record of successful prosecutions and confiscations, which has resulted
in over $10 million of criminal assets being confiscated and paid into the Criminal Offences Confiscation Fund and over £1 million of fines and cost orders made by the Royal Court against banks and trust companies demonstrating the ability of the Government to successfully detect and prosecute financial crime.
The Island s framework for preventing financial crime is subject to periodic review of its alignment with international standards by MONEYVAL, the European regional body of the Financial Action Task Force an inter-governmental organisation that sets standards in respect of financial crime. The results of
these reviews are crucial as they provide an independent validation that the Island is a well-regulated international finance centre that is compliant with international standards, which impacts on the willingness of other jurisdictions to trade openly with Jersey in financial services.
The performance of the ECCU is important both in terms of its ability to successfully uphold law and order and through its ability to demonstrate that the Island has a properly resourced and effective prosecutorial function for financial crime.
When the ECCU was originally established, it was recognised that its resource levels would need to be kept under close review. More resources are now required in this area to enable the function to respond successfully to additional financial crime prosecutions and confiscations, respond to work arising from
the National Risk Assessment exercise, support the Island s preparations for its forthcoming MONEYVAL review, and enable an expert response to the evolving international legal and regulatory developments. On the advice of the Attorney General, the investment will enable the recruitment of two additional full time legal advisors who will be required to undertake this additional work.

Project Summary
As with many Government pay groups, officials within the Law Officers Department (LOD) are entitled to incremental increases in salary up to a maximum salary attributed to a given role. Increments are allocated over a time if a postholder displays satisfactory performance. The current staffing budget for the Law Officers Department was predicted on assumptions around role turnover and the prevalence
of vacancies whilst recruitment is pending. This approach has enabled the Department to successfully manage its staff cost requirements over the course of the two Medium Term Financial Plans and the subsequent Government Plans. However, changes to the rate of increments, revisions to financial management practice, and the re-evaluation of some jobs gradings mean this approach is no longer sustainable and the Department s staff budget needs to be regularised.
This investment supports a regularisation of the Department s staff budget across 39 individuals whilst retaining scope to maintain the essential non-staff operational spending that is essential to enable
the delivery of the Law Officers legal duties. The investment will ensure that the Department s staff spending remains on budget throughout the Government Plan 2022-25 and should staff turnover or vacancies lead to lower spending on staffing, savings will be generated as part of corporate financial management processes.

Project Summary
The States approved the Access to Justice Law in 2019 and an appointed day act is expected to bring the legislation into effect during the last quarter of 2021. The legislation brings into effect a new legal aid system which will cost more than the existing system, principally because it creates a system of fixed fee payments to lawyers representing clients on criminal legal aid certificates and introduces a Legal Aid Office to administer the system. Article 5 of the Access to Justice (Jersey) Law 2019, which states that: The States shall ensure that the Judicial Greffier is provided with sufficient resources for the purpose of meeting payments under the Legal Aid Scheme.
It is anticipated that the new system will smooth out some of the expenditure volatility experienced with the existing system, which can result in sizable awards of costs for acquitted legal aid clients. Under the new Scheme, it is proposed that lawyers are paid fixed fees for representation of their criminal legal aid clients, thereby providing a limit on the costs that will be incurred for a given case.
Predicting the forward cost of any legal aid system is extremely difficult as a variety of factors significantly affect the volume of legal aid cases that may occur. For example, the social environment,
the extent of police staffing levels, and the success rate of educational and rehabilitation programmes. However, based on historical case volumes, it is estimated that an additional sum of up to £1.5 million will be required to operate the new legal aid system.

Project Summary
The States Greffe underwent a significant reorganisation with effect from 1 January 2020. The Department was organised into three new sections:
Committees and Panels;
Chamber and Members Resources; and Digital and Public Engagement.
A number of new posts were created and recruited to, particularly to enhance the scrutiny function and to create new teams focusing on Members research and casework and digital and public engagement. A review of the reorganisation took place in Autumn 2020 and identified particular workload pressures in the secretariat officer and administration teams that were having significant effects on employee wellbeing.
In respect of the secretariat officer team, unsustainable workloads due to current service demands have only been partly ameliorated by the employment of temporary staff. Although some aspects of the increase in workload are not likely to be long-term, being due to the Covid-19 pandemic, there
is increased long-term pressure on the team due to a change in the system for recording ministerial decisions. Additional staff are needed both to relieve short-term pressures and to support the proper functioning of the ministerial decision system in the long-run.
In respect of the administration team, the reorganisation envisaged that the Office Manager role would both run the team and perform a number of corporate functions including responsibility for records management, business continuity and health and safety. In reality, the day-to-day management role has been more significant than envisaged and it has not been possible for the other responsibilities to be discharged consistently, despite their increasing significance.
The reorganisation review also identified a need to strengthen the Digital and Public Engagement Team with the addition of more specialist skills, and to provide additional officer support to the Scrutiny Liaison Committee.
To respond to the issues identified above, investment is proposed to:
establish two new posts: a senior secretariat officer who can take online management responsibilities,
and an assistant role, replacing the current reliance on temporary or fixed term staff;
create a new team leader post in the administration team to ensure that the corporate responsibilities
can be effectively discharged;
appoint a Research and Project Officer to support the Scrutiny Liaison Committee, ensuring the
effectiveness of the Government scrutiny process through proper resourcing of the support function for the panels and committees.
convert two Research and Project Officer roles in the Digital and Public Engagement section to more
specialist roles
increase the remuneration of a number of posts that were upgraded in response to challenges to the
outcome of the original reorganisation.

Project Summary
The Members Pension Scheme was established in 2020, following a recommendation by the States Members Remuneration Review Body. The Review Body recognised that the absence of a pension scheme was a factor in deterring people from standing for election. While the Scheme is open to all members under the age of 74, it is not mandatory so it was not anticipated that all members would join and financial forecasts were set on initial expressions of interest with the assumption that take up would increase from 2022 following the election.
The Scheme was been successfully attracted more participants than had originally been anticipated leading to a small budget shortfall in 2021. As a consequence, it is now anticipated that budgets for 2022 and beyond may not be sufficient to meet future pension costs and that the available budget should be increased so that it is sufficient to accommodate any of the 49 members that are eligible for the Scheme.

Project Summary
The States Assembly website is the front door to the Assembly and its work for the vast majority of the public and traffic to the site has increased considerably in recent years. The website was last updated in 2018, though the backend of the website was not changed and is now several years old.
The Privileges and Procedures Committee s has adopted a new Digital and Public Engagement Strategy that envisages that any visitor to the States Assembly s website can quickly:
understand the role of the States Assembly and how it differs from the Government; access the information or resources they re looking for;
engage seamlessly with Jersey s elected legislature
The current States Assembly website acts as an information repository a library of documents and information. Whilst users who know what they re looking for on the site can navigate it, it is not as accessible or intuitive for Islanders who are less familiar with the role of the States Assembly and the site s contents.
With only 32% of eligible voters using their vote in 2018 and given that independent research identified a lack of education on the system and candidates as a major cause, significant change is needed to help Islanders engage with the States Assembly throughout the political term.
It is evident from social media that Islanders are engaged with local issues and it is important that the States Assembly uses this interest to cross sell related topics. However, the current site is very inflexible compared to more up-to-date content management systems, and its architecture means that even
basic changes necessary to ensure information on the site is up to date can require input from external developers, which is both very time consuming and costly. Equally, the current site does not allow for content such as propositions, amendments or reports to be grouped together by subject (e.g. Education, Health, Environment, etc.).
Investing in a modern system will allow officials to update the website without external support, and allow for the site to be reconfigured to:
group information by topic;
cater specifically to the needs of different audiences (teachers, students, newcomers to the Island,
those who haven t voted before; businesses, etc);
include a subscribe function for users to receive updates on the topics they re interested in;
embed social media into the pages of the website to avoid duplication of effort and to serve those
who don t have social media accounts;
provide interactive educational tools;
include a ticketing system for public tours of the Chamber.
Investment will support the re-design and implementation of a new website in 2022 and provide for the on-going maintenance and development costs.

Project Summary
Jersey plays a full part in the British-Irish Parliamentary Assembly (BIPA), a body established under the Good Friday Agreement to foster engagement between parliamentarians across the British Isles. It meets in plenary twice a year and operates through committees which examine and report on a variety of themes and issues relevant to the UK, the Republic of Ireland and the Crown Dependencies. The Constable of St. Helier is the States Assembly s representative on BIPA and the Deputy of St. Mary is his alternate.
The Chief Minister successfully requested that Jersey should host a BIPA plenary in September 2022, which will represent the first time the conference will have taken place outside the UK or the Republic of Ireland.
The event, which will bring dozens of parliamentarians and support staff to Jersey to discuss the organisation s recent work and future priorities, will be an opportunity to showcase the Island and enhance Jersey s influence in BIPA.

Project Summary
Due to the complications and restrictions associated with Covid-19, Liberation day 2020 and 2021 were significantly scaled down events. It is hoped with the vaccination programme success, the full-scale event can return from 2022. This business case seeks variable funding in Government Plan 2022-25 to ensure delivery of the annual Liberation day celebrations on 9th May each year taking into account the level of celebration planned for the 75th Anniversary, which will be now held in 2022. All years events are to include as a minimum, formal States Assembly sitting, public ceremony and afternoon party to enable the community to come together and celebrate one of the most important moments in the
Island s history.
Liberation Day has historically been funded from the Department s expenditure limit supplemented with annually managed expenditure budgets. This arrangement allows for targeted budget flexibility and
it is a particularly effective method of funding special anniversary years, which over the Government Plan period will be 2022 and 2025 representing the belated 75th anniversary and 80th anniversary respectively. This investment will continue that arrangement to ensure delivery of Liberation Day annually, which has in the past proved a successful day for the community.

In 2019, the States Employment Board (SEB) approved the alignment of Crown Officers ( Bailiff & Deputy Bailiff ) salaries and benefits with UK standards. During a transitional phase the salary element was funded from one-off funding sources while the associated pension payments were subject to additional funding in Government Plan 2021-24. The salary implications are no longer absorbable by the Department so additional funding is now required to properly resource the Crown Officers remuneration over the life of the Government Plan 2022-25 and provide compatibility in the future.

Project Summary
The ITS Project from Release 1 to 4 invests in the Government of Jersey IT infrastructure, delivering a single system and its components that reach a broad range of users across the organisation.
During the preliminary phases of investigation, an opportunity has presented itself to expand the scope of the project to replace current systems that have reached or are due to reach the end of their operating life.
Two further modules have been identified that would expand the ITS Project by delivering modern IT systems to officers in the area of Health and Safety and Asset Management.
The first will deliver a Health and Safety module capable of improving the reporting and recording of incidents across the organisation. The second module will enable the full use of the asset management component already identified in Release 3 and bring to an end the use of existing ageing systems. This will provide a complete asset management solution for the use of Jersey Property Holdings, thereby enhancing the management of the Government estate, maintenance, lease and property management.
Impact on Sustainable Wellbeing
The additional components of ITS, will support the development of the corporate landlord function in JPH. This will see the management and maintenance of Government properties improved, enhancing the user experience for customers and enabling more efficient workflows for Government employees.
The drive towards a sustainable estate can be better managed, allowing developments and changes to be understood and recognised, allowing the Government to improve the overall portfolio of properties for future generations.
Better reporting of Health and Safety incidents will improve risk management processes and, thereby, improve the health and wellbeing of employees and visitors to government premises, as well as managing the wellbeing of staff and customers.

2022 2023 2024 2025 2,000 3,000 - -
Project Summary
Fort Regent (the "Fort") is one of Jersey s most important assets and it has the potential to once again become an integral part of the Island s community, whilst also appealing to a wider UK and international market through visitor and business tourism.
A key aspiration is to make the Fort more accessible for both local users and visitors approaching from the town centre and to provide adequate provision to host large numbers of people at events. This can be achieved by improving vehicular access, making car parking improvements and enhancing the current combination of lift and escalator access from Pier Road. There is also an option to create an elevator and an accompanying series of walkways to create an innovative new form of access from Snow Hill.
The Fort currently accommodates a large number of activities with large areas that are underutilised
or not used. This presents opportunities for development, allowing other activities and facilities to be bought to the Fort. A general overhaul, reconfiguration and redevelopment of both the internal and external spaces of the Fort is required in order to create the right solution to secure its long-term future.
The existing gardens and external areas of the Fort have become disused over time. The vision now is to transform these into part of the experience of visiting the Fort. There is a need to regenerate the external areas so that they can become open to the public from dawn till dusk and, in combination with improved access, will become a public park extension to the town centre, making the exteriors of the Fort a destination in their own right.
The key aspects of this investment will involve the following activities:
Dedicated access to the complex.
Relocation of current activities to temporary accommodation with an internal strip out.
Creation of accessible green spaces for community uses to link North Snow Hill end of the Fort to La
Collette Park.
Development of internal and external green spaces along with Master planning for future works.
Impact on Sustainable Wellbeing
Create a sustainable, vibrant economy: The Fort Regent project will be a significant contributor to the development and recruitment of the local skills workforce, providing experience and training for the future.
The longer-term expectations are for the Fort to become a modern destination with a significant contribution to the Islands economy with opportunities for jobs and economic growth with an increase in GVA through direct tourism potential and additional visitors to the Fort.
The opportunities to enhance outdoor space, and green space for Islanders to use will improve islanders physical and mental wellbeing by providing safe and useable spaces to enjoy.

Project Summary
The Inspiring Active Places Sports Strategy (IAP) was launched in September 2020. The aim of the project is to develop a broad approach to improve the physical activity of children and adults across the whole population. This will have a positive effect on adult s and children s health and wellbeing.
The ultimate goal of the programme is to enhance the Island s sports facilities, providing venues and community hubs that will further increase the number of participants in sport. These community hubs and sites are part of bringing communities together, enabling islanders to take up and lead active and healthier lives.
The wider development of this project is ongoing. It involves consideration and development of strategies to upgrade the Island s sporting infrastructure over the coming years where funding can allow individual projects to be undertaken.
The Government Plan already contributes funding to this overall goal, with activities being undertaken across the Island to lead us on this journey of development.
The funding available in 2022, is to enable this broader strategy to be enhanced and to allow for the development of projects that will deliver on this goal.
Impact on Sustainable Wellbeing
The IAP strategy will deliver a range of sport and wellbeing hubs, which will underpin Islander s access to facilities that support improved mental and physical health for generations to come.
New facilities across the Island that will be accessible by children for their participation in sport and a wide range of community and wellbeing activities. School facilities will also be enhanced at Le Rocquier and Haute VallØe.
The provision of facilities for sport, physical activity and wellbeing, will ensure that all members of the public can use these facilities, which will act as community hubs and the place to go to take part in group activities. It is well recognised the role that sport plays in creating and sustaining communities and creating social cohesion.

Project Summary
The access network across our island is unique and one of the Island s jewels. If extended and maintained for safe use, then it has a large and increasing role to play in ensuring an active population with positive wellbeing. Green spaces aren t just for nature, they boost Islander s mental health too.
Recent on-Island surveys undertaken throughout the pandemic show that our countryside and ecology offer an important, and in many cases an untapped resource, that are increasingly being used to positively contribute to wider Government targets of personal wellbeing and activity, particularly for those people and families with children living in apartments in our growing urbanised areas.
The project will help deliver a vibrant Island countryside that s connected to urban areas. It will enhance and expand Islanders use and enjoyment of the countryside and its ecology, by improving countryside accessibility.
Impact on Sustainable Wellbeing
Access to a safe and well-maintained countryside that supports a thriving ecosystem has large benefits to personal well-being, health and activity of Islanders. This can also be measured and reported through surveys of users that are currently ongoing.
The countryside and green spaces are home to much of the Island s unique wildlife and as such need to be managed and protected through the Wildlife (Jersey) Law 2021.
Proper signage that is replicated across the Island by all large landowners and proper maintenance of the countryside will increase the safety of users.
The Project also contributes towards other Government projects such as safer access to schools, public sites, coastal paths and walks etc. Efforts will also be made to understand future needs of Islanders in order to enhance the user experience and create a safe and sustainable access to the countryside for future generations.
Funding to this project will be from allocated underspends identified on an annual basis.

Project Summary
The Minister for Home Affairs lodged Proposition P30-2021 Jersey Sea Cadets: Provision of a Permanent Headquarters which was debated, and adopted, on 8 June 2021. It states:
The States are asked to decide whether they are of the opinion
That an appropriate permanent base of operations should be identified, and a funding solution proposed by the Government of Jersey, for the use of the Jersey Sea Cadets; and to agree that TS Jersey is not released for development or change of use as part of the Fort Regent development plans until such a permanent base has been identified.
The funding available will develop and deliver a permanent base of operations. In order to ensure the best strategic use of the new facility, it is proposed that it will also accommodate the Army Cadets, who currently operate from the Field Squadron facilities at Le Quesne Barracks. This will provide a joint facility for the two Cadet Forces and enable collaboration, reduce duplication of facilities, and ensure that both Forces have modern, fit for purpose facilities in which to develop and deliver their activities for their members, making a valuable contribution to the education and development of the children and young people in the Cadet Forces.

Project Summary
This project is to provide a new joint headquarters, administration, training and station facility for the States of Jersey Ambulance Service (Ambulance) and the States of Jersey Fire and Rescue Service (FRS). The Services are key pillars in the Island s strategy for maintaining a safe environment for Islanders, visitors, the Island s infrastructure, built and natural environments. By increasing community resilience and dealing with emergencies when they occur, both organisations play a vital role. In pursuing and securing key Government priorities such as the health and wellbeing of Islanders, their activities and capabilities underpin most or even all of the Jersey Performance Framework principles and the current Common Strategic Priorities and their supporting priorities, themes and ongoing initiatives.
Much has changed in the Ambulance and Fire & Rescue professions in the years since they were first accommodated in their current facilities. The premises are no longer able to support the modern-day delivery of efficient and effective services, which are increasingly aimed at engagement, training and professional standards and development, planning and security matters. The current facilities were not designed with the lifespan they are now fulfilling, and the Ambulance facility does not meet many of the infection, prevention and control standards now required. The Fire & Rescue facility has significant building fabric issues and has consistently been assessed in independent inspections as a risk to the ongoing delivery and improvement of services.
It is essential to deliver a modern, fit-for-purpose facility, co-locating the two professions with operationally common issues such as garaging, administration and training space requirements, and increasing and improving collaboration and integration between the Services.
Impact on Sustainable Wellbeing
Both Services support the Common Strategic Policy priority of putting young people first. In the Ambulance context, this involves responding to acute medical crises involving children and young people as well as playing a key role in the safeguarding process by virtue of their unique levels of access.
The Fire and Rescue Service has a key role in protecting Jersey s natural and built environment; again a key priority of the government within the current CSP. For firefighters, one of their key prevention priorities is children and young people in order to deliver a longer-term shift in community behaviour to reduce overall risk; firefighters are also involved in the safeguarding process. Alongside this, is the role that firefighters, paramedics and emergency planning professionals play in ensuring that Jersey is, and is perceived as, a safe and stable place; this, in turn, supporting the CSP priority creating a sustainable, vibrant economy and skilled local workforce for the future.

2022 2023 2024 2025 1,250 2,027 1,676 -
Project Summary
The Government Plan 2020-2023 included an increase in revenue funding to the Arts, Heritage and Culture sectors. Further funding has been marked to support the development of Elizabeth Castle through to the end of 2024. This will involve the redevelopment of several structures to enhance and improve the visitor and hospitality offering.
The proposed works comprise three specific projects that will be delivered as part of a strategic works programme to address the fabric and services of Elizabeth Castle during the life of this Government Plan:
Renovation of Victorian Military Hospital as a visitor attraction and a venue for hire
A rare and significant building which has never been returned to public use since damage during WW2. The building is derelict, economically redundant and deteriorating and has been regarded by the Government of Jersey as a priority for refurbishment since 1980. The proposal brings the buildings into use as part of the visitor attraction amenity of the castle and creates opportunities for commercial use through event hire.
Renovation of Coal Store as a multi-purpose function facility
Linked to the Military Hospital is a large nineteenth century coal store. The proposal brings the space into public use through the creation of a multi-purpose function and meeting room, serviced with toilets and a kitchen.
Renovation of Officers Quarters as rental self-catering accommodation
The 1820s Officers Quarters currently house a 1980s exhibition on the history of the castle. This is out of date and badly compromises the historical integrity of the building. Elizabeth Castle houses the first Heritage Lets developed by Jersey Heritage Trust in the 1990s and the proposal expands capacity of this popular scheme - while enabling a more heritage appropriate restoration of the historic buildings.
Impact on Sustainable Wellbeing
The proposals submitted for planning consideration will enhance and enrich the built environment to both aid interpretation and bring that understanding to a greater number of people; both locals and visitors.
Elizabeth Castle is a Grade 1 listed Site of Special Interest (SSI); one of the most important monuments in Jersey. Active conservation management is required to ensure responsibilities of stewardship are met. The Castle provides significant open space, which forms part of public realm of St Helier. The Castle comprises more than 35 structures and forms part of the rich heritage of the Island.

Tax regulations are constantly changing and the systems and technology that underpin the implementation of new regulations and delivery of the Island s taxation strategies. From 2016 to 2020, the Revenue Management System (RMS) project and development of Revenue Jersey has steered the Island s tax. Going forwards, further developments will be required of which this programme will be a key aspect of driving these changes.
The combination of unavoidable changes in system requirements arising during the course of the original programme along with new developments means that based on current knowledge, the following strategic priorities are required to be responded to over the life of the Government Plan:
Independent Taxation

Please see the Outline Business Case referred to above for information on the Impact on Sustainable Wellbeing.
Government Plan Consideration
The Government Plan assumes that the Our Hospital Project is agreed by the States Assembly before the approval of the Government Plan.
EFFICIENCIES AND MEASURES TO REBALANCE EXPENDITURE
Efficiencies and measures to rebalance expenditure
The following section provides additional information on the efficiencies and other rebalancing proposals in the 2022 plan and should be read in conjunction with the Modernising Government section of the Government Plan 2022 25.
These proposals represent either a reduction in spend or an increase in income. The classification of the proposals as either recurring or one-off is also shown.
It is important to restate the approach to the delivery of the efficiencies and other rebalancing measures agreed by the Council of Ministers as set out in the original Efficiencies Plan:
Ministers [also] agreed that if any of the efficiencies are not subsequently approved [or delivered], they will seek alternative departmental efficiencies to the same value to replace them and/or reduce or reprofile some of the planned spending by the equivalent amount, in order to ensure that income and spending remain in balance.
This approach can be described as:
Plan A: The efficiency has been delivered or is on track for delivery
Plan B: An alternative efficiency has been/will be developed to cover any shortfall
Plan C: Typically, Government Plan growth will be deferred to cover any shortfall although other one-
off approaches can be used where appropriate.
Plan D: Non-pay inflation available to departments is reduced to the same value as undelivered
targets. Departments (CYPES and IHE) will continue to work with the Treasury & Exchequer to determine the extent to which they can implement saving measures to achieve their targets, one off or recurring i.e. Plan B or C. Plan D should be considered as the last option
This combination of approaches maintains a sustained focus on the delivery of efficiencies and other rebalancing measures while implementing a backstop which, in the event of non-delivery, ensures that expenditure is delivered within cash limits.
The summary allocation by Minister is:

Grand Total 21,678
CYPES and IHE have undertaken reviews of all service areas and are unable to identify efficiency saving measures or proposals to deliver the full value of the targets requested for 2022. The proposals were not seen as deliverable/ agreeable and therefore alternative measures have been identified for the Government Plan. As suitable measures were not identified and agreed with Ministers, the default position is that the proportion of non-pay inflation efficiency will increase by the same value as these undelivered targets.
Further detail regarding the efficiency and rebalancing measures is set out below which provides summary descriptions of each proposal, classification as either a recurring or one-off measure, budget impact, and departmental allocation.

Description
Over 2020 and 2021 £123m of investment has been injected into the Government of Jersey across many programmes and projects, including significant investment in capabilities (technology and people). It has been assumed that these investments should drive increases in productivity and enable the reduction
of staffing costs, for example, the Technology Transformation Programme (TPP) will increase staff productivity through a number of ways including, but not limited to, increasing automation, streamlining processes and improving the quality of data and information provision/compilation.
In addition to this, departments can utilise a number of levers to achieve the general staffing productivity measure, including:
The implementation of Zero-Based Budgeting (ZBB)
Reductions in avoidable overtime
Reduction in fixed term contracting (FTC)
Reduction in reliance on agency staff
Effective management of sickness
Voluntary release
Vacancy management
Introduction of career-linked grades to recruit inexperienced employees at a lower grade
Each department is at a different stage of transformation and improvement and will work with their Ministers to determine how this saving is delivered within their department. Therefore, the allocation across the levers above will vary across departments.
Zero Based Budgeting (ZBB):
ZBB intends to align pay and non-pay budgets to activity. Several departments have applied the ZBB methodology and it will continue to be rolled out to the remainder of departments. This programme of work will support the continued review of alignment between policy and operational objectives with income and expenditure budgets. It is also the aim of the programme to develop and embed skills, knowledge and tools across the organisation to ensure improvement financial acumen is sustained.
Overtime:
All overtime within each department will continue to be reviewed to reduce the amount of overtime that is authorised and paid for, with a focus on overtime that is paid at more than 1x salary.
An assessment into critical versus non-critical overtime will continue to ensure that there is no risk to frontline service delivery through a reduction in overtime.
Reduction in the reliance on fixed-term contract (FTC) staff:
FTCs continue to be reviewed to determine whether these roles are required or whether individuals could move into roles within existing structures.
Reduction in the reliance on agency staff:
Work continues in reducing the use of agency staff where possible, and to standardise contractual terms with agency suppliers.
It should be noted that for some departments and services the use of overtime, FTC and agency staff is a necessary part of the business model, to cope with peaks in service demand.
Effective management of sickness:
All sickness absence, both long-term and short-term, will be reviewed to determine what actions could be taken to reduce overall sickness absence levels, which are substantially higher than in comparable organisations, to reduce the overall sickness absence paid.
Voluntary release:
A voluntary release scheme can identify and encourage those who are likely to leave the organisation to do so, either through retirement or voluntary release. The role can then be assessed as to whether it needs to be replaced.
Vacancy management:
This will involve budgeting for vacancies within year, both to capture underspends that relate to staff turnover and to capture where recruitment to vacant posts is managed within year.

Establish a framework within which a fair, economically sound and strategic approach to fees and
charges levied by the Government is agreed, and regularly reviewed.
Ensure the best possible value for money and establish the fairest possible approach to charging and
cost recovery. The policy sets out that charges for discretionary services will be set in order to fully recover their costs unless there is a specific decision on the part of the Government to subsidise the service provision for appropriate reasons.
Enable greater consistency across the Government in relation to its approach to setting and reviewing
fees and charges for discretionary services.

Community: The distribution of fees and charges across different cohorts of paying customers (individuals or businesses) should become fairer.
Environment: A subset of fees and charges may be reinvested in protecting the environment. Fees and charges may be used to both incentivise the right behaviours and disincentivise the wrong behaviours based on policy decisions.
Economy: Fairer distribution of costs across customer cohorts and increased recovery of costs of service delivery should provide greater revenue for the Government to pursue policy objectives.
Any unintended consequences?: To be considered at an individual fee/charge level on application of the framework

This template combines the following two IHE rebalancing measures which were started in 2021:
- Re-structure Facilities Management across Government to create one centralised function with hub and spoke delivery aligned with the OneGov principles. (£200,000 in 2022)
- Reduce a portion of the property maintenance budget to reflect a reprioritisation of assets requiring maintenance; informed by the Office Accommodation Project. (£300,000 in 2022)

Description
A review of Property functions across the Government of Jersey is being undertaken in preparation, in part, for the new Integrated Technology Solution and following the C&AG reviews into Estates Management and the IHE Island Public Estate Strategy. The review has a number of themes, which seek to re-organise the various property management and maintenance functions in line with OneGov principles.
Restructuring
Re-structuring Facilities Management across Government to create one centralised management solution with hub and spoke delivery aligns with OneGov principles.
Currently a number of departments manage their own facilities management in buildings and establishments across the Island. Centralisation will enable standards to be compared and equalised, a more coherent procurement strategy for outsourced provision to be developed and, it is expected, a cost saving to be made on the overall provision of facilities management across the Government Estate.
The review will be undertaken applying OneGov principles and will encompass the hard FM elements of provision (property maintenance, minor repairs, cyclical and mandatory maintenance aspects etc.).
Stop non-essential Maintenance
A review of the property portfolio across the whole of the Government of Jersey is being undertaken. Economies of scale and a rationalisation of the Estate to reduce the maintenance burden of sub- standard property and demands of service users to improve facilities will remove the requirement to undertake maintenance which is deemed non-essential or maintain buildings which are now beyond
their useful life for Government purposes.
High Level Objectives
