WATERFRONT ENTERPRISE BOARD LIMITED: APPOINTMENT OF DIRECTORS
Lodged au Greffe on 14th March 2006 by the Chief Minister
STATES GREFFE
PROPOSITION
THE STATES are asked to decide whether they are of opinion
(a ) to appoint Senator Paul Francis Routier, Senator James Leslie Perchard and Deputy Jacqueline
Jeanette Huet of St. Helier to serve as States Directors of the Waterfront Enterprise Board Limited from 1st April 2006 until 31st March 2009;
(b ) to instruct the Greffier of the States to notify the company of the States decision.
CHIEF MINISTER
REPORT
In 1995 the States established the Waterfront Enterprise Board Limited (WEB) as a separate legal entity to act as a development agency of the States for an initial 10-year period, and this was extended for a further 10 years by the Assembly in September 2005. The WEB Memorandum and Articles of Association provide for 7 Directors, with 3 States Directors, 3 non-States Directors and a Managing Director. All States and non-States Directors are appointed by the Assembly, and the Managing Director is appointed by the Directors.
The terms of office of the 3 existing States Directors, namely Senator P.F. Routier, Mr. F.G. Voisin (ex- Deputy of St. Lawrence), and Deputy J.J. Huet, all expire on 31st March 2006 and there is thus a need for the States to appoint 3 States Directors for the period 1st April 2006 to 31st March 2009.
Senator Routier and Deputy Huet have both indicated that they are willing to stand for a further 3-year period as States Directors, and they are therefore nominated again. Senator Perchard, who has recently been elected to the States, has also indicated that he is willing to serve as a States Director. Mr. Voisin cannot be re-nominated because, at the time of appointment, a States Director must be a Member of the States.
The Chief Minister is grateful to Senator Routier, Deputy Huet, and Mr. Voisin for the contribution that they have made as States Directors on the Waterfront Enterprise Board, and he would like to place on record his thanks to them for the work that they have carried out in this connection.
He would also like to thank Senator Routier, Deputy Huet, and Senator Perchard for their willingness to stand for appointment as States Directors, and is certain that their skills and experience will enable them to make a valuable contribution to the work of the Board.
Following consultation with the Chairman of the Waterfront Enterprise Board, the States is asked to approve the appointment of these 3 States Members as States Directors on the Board.
There are no financial or manpower implications for the States arising from this proposition.
