STATES OF JERSEY

PLANNING APPEALS: REVISED SYSTEM (P.87/2013) – COMMENTS

Presented to the States on 10th September 2013 by the Minister for Treasury and Resources

STATES GREFFE

2013   Price code: A  P.87 Com.

COMMENTS

The  Minister  for  Treasury  and  Resources  supports  this  Proposition  and  confirms below  the  estimated  associated  costs.  The  Minister  further  confirms  that,  should Members support this Proposition, funding will be allocated from Central Contingency for 2014 and 2015.

The Minister for Planning and Environment has set out the estimated costs to his department as follows –

 

 

£

Based on 200 appeals per year

 

Inspector's fees:

123,000

Expenses:

25,000

Total:

148,000

Following discussion with the Judicial Greffe, the costs are estimated as follows –

 

 

£

Based on 200 appeals per year

 

Administration – 50% of a Grade 8 FTE

18,734

Management – 20% of a Grade 12 post

11,716

Premises – 25% of current rental paid for the Tribunal premises

13,750

Total:

44,200

The costs of any Law Drafting have not been included in this analysis, but will be allocated through the normal Law Drafting process.

The  total  expenditure  request  is  therefore  estimated  as  a  maximum  of  £192,200, sourced from an allocation from Central Contingency. The Minister for Planning and Environment  has  suggested  that  part  of  this  expenditure  will  be  offset  by  the introduction of a fee which, if proposed, will be subject to a States decision.

Statement under Standing Order 37A [Presentation of comment relating to a proposition]

The Minister apologises to the Assembly for the lateness of this comment, which was due to the Minister recently returning from annual leave.
