"Will the President advise the Assembly of the Committee's position on the use of human tissue for either research or genetic engineering and

1. outline what measures, if any, the Committee is taking to legislate against and/or regulate such use?
2. w

ill the Committee ensure that an appropriate law is brought forward to preclude the possibility of our Island being used as a haven without appropriate legislation to prohibit human cloning?"

Deputy G.C.L. Baudains of St. Clement will ask the following questions of the President of the Public Services Committee -

"When the President presents (in conjunction with the Planning and Environment Committee as necessary) his Committee's future plans for traffic alterations within St. Helier's ring road, will he undertake to include also those road and pavement alterations recently carried out so that Members may have the ability to debate these as well or, if the answer is in the negative, would he explain the reasons?"

Senator P.V.F. Le Claire will ask the following question of the President of the Harbours and Airport Committee -

"Would the President advise members -

1. how much has been raised in extra charges for security since 11th September 2001?
2. how this money is being allocated by supplying a breakdown on security costs?
3. how many air side passes have been revoked in relation to the Alpha Taxiway?
4. whether or not it is the case that once air side, persons are able to access areas where aircraft are parked?"

Senator P.V.F. Le Claire will ask the following questions of the President of the Home Affairs Committee -

"1. Given  the  recent  publicity  accorded  to  the  detention  of

illegal immigrants working on the Alpha Taxiway project at the airport is the President satisfied that arrangements for preventing the entry into the Island of illegal immigrants are adequate?

2. Since the new charges have been introduced for increased security following 11th September 2001, how much the Committee has spent on overtime for -

1. the States of Jersey Police;
2. the immigration department at the Airport and St. Helier harbour?"

The Connétable of St. Clement will ask the following question of the President of the Planning and Environment Committee -

"On 22nd November 2001, I headed a delegation comprising Senator Lakeman, Deputy Gérard Baudains of St. Clement and one of the many objectors to the development of Field 126, St. Clement, to meet the Planning and Environment Committee. I concluded our presentation with a request that the Committee reconsider the matter with a view to revoking their decision to approve the development of Field 126. Would the President advise members -

1. what progress has been made concerning my request for revocation of the planning permission granted by the Committee on 28th November 2001 in respect of this site?

Deputy L.J. Farnham of St. Saviour will ask the following question of the President of the Public Services Committee -

"I asked the President of the Public Services Committee questions on 19th June 2001 regarding the Island's overall speed limits policy, and the States were advised that the Committee will produce a document for consultation, to be made public in the autumn'. Would the President advise members -

1. whether a consultation document has been prepared?
2. as the target of the autumn has been missed, when will he make public the consultation document, and when is it now intended to bring a firm policy to the States fordebate?"

Deputy G.C.L. Baudains of St. Clement will ask the following question of the President of the Policy and Resources Committee -

"With regard to the Implementation Plan for proposed reforms of our government, will the President -

1. undertake to publish a list of those who responded to the document in the same way that the Clothier responses were recorded, so that Members and the public can get a measure of how much input has been made, and
2. advise members of the cut-off date after which representations will not be considered?"
