Introduction
Under the Public Finances (Jersey) Law 2005, the detail of each Department's expenditure and resources is required at the States Annual Business Plan debate in September at which all States spending decisions will be made.
The Budget in December will approve the tax and funding proposals required as a result of the expenditure decisions.
The Annual Business Plan document is in two parts. Part one is the main Annual Business Plan Report, summarising the expenditure proposals and key objectives with key success criteria which are the items being proposed and to be debated.
Part two is the Annex providing additional detail of each Department's expenditure and resources. The Annex also provides full details of the individual proposals in support of the proposals within the Capital, Legislation and Property programmes.
The format of the departmental entries which form the Annex to the States Annual Business Plan has been reviewed since last year :
simplify the information to make it easier for the reader to understand;
to include an accumulative figure for the capital programme for 2010 – 2013 with a project start date;
remove the summary of key objectives and key success criteria from the Annex and include them in the Annual Business Plan such that all items for debate are in the main report; and
improve the link between resource allocation and activity within the detailed service analysis.
The information provided in the annex for each department, and Non Ministerial States funded body, which will also be presented in their individual annual business plans when produced later in the year, includes:
• an overview of the department's business plan and objectives from the Minister;
• a summary service analysis and capital programme for the Department;
• a reconciliation of the changes in expenditure allocations for the three years 2009 to 2013 including a commentary on these changes and the budgeted manpower levels;
• a detailed service analysis providing, performance measures, links to key objectives and a financial commentary of the movement in expenditure and manpower allocation from 2008 to 2009 for each service area.
The Chief Minister and Treasury and Resources Departments are indebted to all departments for their co- operation in providing this information.
Other information provided in this annex includes details of:
• the proposed 2009 to 2013 capital programme;
• a reconciliation with the approved programme from last year's Business Plan;
• the key IS projects;
• the properties proposed for disposal in 2009; and
• the comprehensive schedules of the legislation programme including work in progress and details of the impact on the resources of the States of the proposed law drafting in 2009.
Departments will produce their own detailed annual business plans later in the year and these will be at a level where they can be used operationally within that department.
The Chief Minister and Treasury and Resources Departments hope readers will find the information in the annex of benefit and would encourage any queries in relation to the annex to be addressed to the relevant Department.

Chief Minister
Minister's Introduction
The Department will continue to develop across its wide range of services, leading to continued development and improved efficiency. The corporate support facilities of HR, IS, Law Drafting and Emergency Planning are fundamental to the continued work of the States. However, two issues in particular stand out as the priorities. These are working with the next Council of Ministers to develop and implement their strategic plan and work on developing the Island's international identity and standing.
The main areas of operation for the Chief Minister's Department are:
The Policy Unit (policy support and research for the Council of Ministers and Chief Executive; strategic and business planning; communications; statistics; the Population Office)
International Affairs, including constitutional matters, economic advice and international finance
Law Draftsman's Office
States Human Resources, including Customer Services
Information Services
Emergency Planning
The key projects and issues for the Department in 2009 are:
- Policy
2009 will see a new Council of Ministers and its priorities will drive the department's policy programme. A new Strategic Plan will be developed during the first few months of 2009 and whilst it is assumed that in 2009 there will be continuity of the key policies that have already been approved by the States, there will inevitably be some change. A major priority for the Chief Minister's Department will be to ensure that development and implementation plans for any new policy direction are put into place and properly co-ordinated.
The Social Policy Framework will continue to be implemented. This will ensure that social policies approved by the States are developed and implemented in a co-ordinated way. This will include arrangements for the collection and management of information which will help to inform and evaluate social policy decisions in Jersey.
The implementation of the migration policy will continue with the finalisation of legislation and the commencement of the creation of a population register.
An initial response into the effects of an ageing population will be published by the Council of Ministers this year and in 2009 the States will consult and debate possible ways forward on this important issue.
We will continue to raise the profile of the Council of Ministers so as to increase public awareness and understanding of States policies and performance.
- International Affairs
Jersey's international identity will continue to be developed, principally by meeting its international obligations, explaining and promoting Jersey in all international contacts and wherever possible, by seeking to enter into agreements in our own name.
Jersey's international promotion activities will be reviewed and developed in the light of the International Monetary Fund's report expected at the end of the first quarter in 2009.
Jersey's international strategy for its finance industry will be developed with Jersey Finance Limited (JFL) and industry. Overseas representation will be considered in conjunction with Jersey's wider needs for international representation.
The provision of quality economic advice will continue to support effective management of the economy.
- Information Technology
Investment in Corporate Information Technology will continue to underpin delivery of services, improve efficiency and will support many of the new initiatives. A major re-organisation of the service will be completed in 2009. This will complete the creation of a stateswide professional function with an increased emphasis on professional standards, project management and the appropriate involvement of commercial partners in the provision of a modern IS infrastructure. Key projects for 2009 include:
• a Population Register to support the Migration Strategy. This will enable the States to balance economic growth and demand on the Island's resources by monitoring the employment and housing status of individuals as well ass the total population size;
• Health systems to support New Directions. New Directions will deliver improved patient care through development of streamlined processes and the replacement of existing Health systems with a integrated set of applications that share the same patient data; and
• the States website to support the Web Development Strategy.This will enable the States to deliver its vision of improved customer service by providing clear, relevant and current information, online services that the public expect and a greatly improved user experience which is consistent, reliable and fit for purpose
- Human Resources and Organisational Development
The Organisation Development Programme aim is to place the customer at the heart of everything we do. The focus of the programme will be on the further development of customer focussed services (particularly through the use of the Web) and on the further implementation of process improvement initiatives. Linked to this, the Modern Manager, Future Leaders, First Impressions and other learning and development programmes are designed to underpin the cultural shift in the delivery of public services which is necessary to bring demonstrable improvements to the users of our services.
Underpinned by the new HR Information System, Human Resources will lead initiatives designed to significantly improve, across the States, the management of attendance, performance and succession. Additionally there will be significant exploration of more flexible methods of remuneration in response to the challenges set by the "Emerging Issues" report of the Comptroller and Auditor General on States Spending.
- Law Drafting
The Law Draftsman's department is a vital service providing the legislative framework within which the States operates and services are provided and is a significant part of the annual consideration of the States resources. The legislation programme 2009 is described in section 7 of the Annual Business Plan, and is set out in detail on page 149 of this Annex.
- Emergency Planning
Following the major review of arrangements and consequential change of direction in 2007, the Emergency Planning function will continue to improve civil protection planning arrangements and awareness. This will include emphasis on closer working in partnership with other organisations, developing the overall resilience framework for the Island and the development of emergency co-ordination arrangements.
Experience in previous years has shown that the department is not properly resourced to meet the full range of emerging pressures and represent Jersey's interests as the centre of it's government. There is a real need for additional resources that would allow:
the creation of a core international relations unit, to provide sufficient expertise to promote Jersey's developing International Identity including increased representation in Brussels and London;
a good standard of office support to the Chief Minister as recommended by the Privileges and Procedures Committee;
a dedicated resource to implement the Social Policy Framework and;
corporate resources support to improve performance across States departments.
Each of these is considered vital to improve governance but cannot be provided within the current funding arrangements.

Financial Summary 2009 - 2011
The total budget from the Department has increased by £0.32 million since 2008, mainly due to the effect of inflation increases. Total inter-departmental transfers in 2009 amount to £0.13 million, notable transfers including the transfer of recruitment advertising budgets to individual departments and the transfer of the Family Nursing and Health Care PECRS liability from the Health and Social Security Department.
The 2010 and 2011 budgets increase by 2.0% and 3.2% respectively, principally due to pay awards.
Resource Allocation Process
The Resource allocation in 2010 and 2011 is the allocation of monies to Overseas Aid as approved by the Council of Ministers. £200,000 increasing to £300,000 has been granted in 2010 and 2011 respectively for the preparation and implementation of the 2011 Census.
Efficiency Savings 2009 -2011
The final year of the five year Change Programme of Efficiency Savings are due in 2009 and will be largely driven by Procurement initiatives led by the Treasury and Resources Department.

Economic Development
Minister's Introduction
The aim of the Economic Development Department is to achieve sustainable economic growth and diversification in the economy, based on productivity improvements.
Every economic indicator we have indicates the economy performed very strongly in 2007 and as yet there are no signs of the Island being affected by the credit crunch in 2008.
- Employment continues to grow strongly with almost all the growth in the private sector, more importantly – it is split quite evenly between the finance and non-finance parts of our economy. The majority of growth has also been in local employment.
- Bank deposits, funds under administration and trust activity are holding.
- On the macro economic level strong economic growth has been accompanied by low inflation with RPIX within 0.5% of States target in 11 of last 13 quarters. Higher food and oil prices are feeding through into higher inflation in Jersey and elsewhere, although RPIX was still only 2.9% in March this year.
This is encouraging news and as we look to 2009 we hope to see continued growth while remaining ever watchful of inflation.
The Finance Industry continues to be a major driver of our economy and in 2009 we hope to see the growth seen in 2006 and 2007 sustained. Economic Development and Jersey Finance Limited are working together to develop both new products and new markets that will maintain and enhance Jersey's position in an increasingly competitive market place.
With our limited land and labour, we have to manage all our resources effectively and our skills development strategy will continue to be a key element of our emphasis in 2009. Higher productivity across the whole economy is a priority and I see Economic Development's raison d'etre as improving productivity and skills. The newly formed Skills Executive (combining staff and financial resources from Economic Development, Education Sport & Culture and Social Security into a single entity with direct industry involvement) will provide a more joined up approach to skills development and we are happy to be an integral part of this initiative.
The Enterprise and Business Development Strategy will continue to be a key element in achieving our growth targets. The strategy has three aims:
Increasing the rate of business start ups and growth;
Developing international trade and inward investment;
Encouraging commitment and investment into work related skills training.
The provision of a First Stop Shop for business in Jubilee Wharf provides, for the first time a valuable service to new and existing businesses.
One of the biggest challenges, if not the biggest in managing a growing Island economy is keeping inflation in check. Inflation is the thing that undermines all businesses and today it undermines efficiency and erodes our competitiveness. The rise in oil and food prices means that we will have to give even greater focus to the factors that Jersey can influence and that help keep inflation under control. The new Anti-inflation Strategy sets out how we can do this – through setting policy relative to our position in the economic cycle, supporting productivity growth across the economy and creating the conditions for competition to prevail. We cannot afford to see a repeat of past problems when strong economic growth has fed quickly into higher inflation and then into higher costs (e.g. wages and rents) sucking the economy into an inflationary cycle.
Competition is the healthy way of ensuring that efficiency improvements continue and that the pressure to keep prices and costs down remains strong and Economic Development will continue to support the JCRA.
Economic Development will continue to reap the benefits of the integration of Jersey Harbours and Jersey Airport to our department and visitors and residents will both be winners. We will work together with air and sea carriers to develop new and existing routes.

Financial Summary 2009 - 2011
The total budget for the department has increased by £0.366 million in 2009 due mainly to inflation and pay awards. The 2010 and 2011 budget increase by 2.4% and 2.4% respectively driven by inflation and pay awards.
There have been significant reallocations of funding between sectors as the Department looks to capitalise on and consolidate growth in the Finance Sector with the relevant legislative and regulatory support infrastructure, to ensure longevity.
It should be noted that the Department undertakes continuous business planning throughout the year to ensure that budget is allocated to the most effective investments, this may lead to a revised budget being presented in the Department's Business Plan in November.
Resource Allocation
The Resource allocation in 2010 and 2011 is the allocation of monies to Overseas Aid as approved by the Council of Ministers. For 2009, there will be an increase in manpower of 2FTE, which relates to the transfer of the Shipping Register function from Harbours to Economic Development.
Efficiency Savings 2009 - 2011
The final year of the five year Change Programme of Efficiency Savings are due in 2009 and will be largely driven by Procurement initiatives led by the Treasury and Resources Department.

Education, Sport and Culture
Education, Sport and Culture
Minister's Introduction
As Minister for Education, Sport and Culture I have a key responsibility for developing and delivering over-arching policies for learners of all ages; policies that will provide individuals with the opportunity to develop their potential throughout their lives and to play a full part as engaged, economically active citizens.
Alongside the key projects that will be developed or implemented during the year, work will continue on a new long-term strategy for Education, Sport and Culture. This will explore the main issues likely to face the service over the next ten years and be set in the context of a new States Strategic Plan. It will build on the successes of the past, involve consultation with key stakeholders and provide a clear framework to guide the future direction of the service.
In 2009, the Department will continue to drive forward proposals for integrated early education and care as a fundamental strategy for ensuring that our children get the best start possible.
A review of the primary curriculum will place greater emphasis on the development of skills, particularly literacy, to ensure that all pupils achieve their expected levels of attainment and are fully prepared to make a successful transition to secondary education.
A review of the teaching of French across primary and secondary schools will help us focus on the best strategies for enhancing the teaching of languages and developing in our children, an enthusiasm for learning to communicate in a modern foreign language.
The introduction of Professional Partnering for schools and better training and support for Governing Bodies will lead to enhanced governance and accountability. This will happen in the context of a new framework for school evaluation.
Working with Planning and Environment there will be a greater focus on Environmental Education and working more closely with the Health and Social Services Department we will continue the drive towards healthier schools.
A major priority for 2009 will be to encourage even more people to participate in sport or leisure activities so that they reach recommended levels which will benefit health and quality of life. In partnership with Health and Social Services, exercise referral programmes will be provided which will ultimately improve health and reduce dependency on health and social service support.
In terms of social inclusion, a major review of our policies will take place in 2009 and further programmes will be developed in the community to engage young people in purposeful activity thereby reducing the potential for anti-social behaviour. Youth, school and hard to reach groups will be targeted as part of the Access for All' initiative and activities will be provided at affordable rates.
The Department for Education, Sport and Culture has a crucial role in delivering the States Cultural Strategy by raising the profile of culture and by maintaining the infrastructure which supports cultural development throughout the Island. Through partnerships with non-profit organisations, islanders and visitors enjoy a wide range of cultural experiences. These partners also provide valuable educational opportunities and help to sustain the many community organisations which make up the fabric of our cultural life. In 2009 the Department will continue to provide advice and encourage cultural development at all levels. It will ensure that the cultural sector receives appropriate support and that the outcomes of the first public Cultural Council conference in June 2008 are used to inform development of the strategy in 2009.
Since its introduction in 2007, the Citizenship Programme in schools has flourished as children and young people have embraced the subject. This has helped them to understand their Island and presented them with opportunities to explore their own social and political views. In 2009 the Citizenship Curriculum will be firmly embedded across all schools.
In sport, individuals and teams from Jersey have performed with great credit in National and International competition. Work will continue with Clubs and Associations so that they develop plans leading to greater success both at home and overseas thereby raising the Island's profile at an international level.
Significant changes have been made to the way in which local students are supported through higher education. In 2009 it will again be necessary to re-negotiate Island tuition fees with UK universities. These discussions will take place against a background of great change and uncertainty and it will be important to ensure that a fair settlement is obtained for students and their parents.
In 2008, the introduction of a local Foundation Degree in Financial Services was a welcome addition to the Highlands portfolio. A feasibility study will explore whether a similar programme for Enterprise and ICT' might be developed for launch in 2009 paving the way for the development of a University Centre in Jersey as envisaged in the Goldstein Report on Higher Education'.
Additional investment in the Youth Service in recent years and the development of partnerships with parishes and other organisations has enabled the Service to increase the level of activity and the range of services to young people. Programmes of activity have been extended through sports development and holiday activity programmes which have been effective in engaging a wider range of young people. In 2009, the Department will seek to draw together the wider range of services and activities for young people to provide a more effective and comprehensive service.

Financial Summary 2009 - 2011
The Department has initiated a process of consultation with major stakeholders in order to identify key opportunities and challenges for the future. This will form the foundation for a strategic vision for Education, Sport and Culture over the next ten years and will provide the basis for long term financial planning. Key challenges include planning for the effective management of forecast changes to pupil numbers without impacting on the quality of provision and developing a Skills Strategy for the Island in partnership with other States Departments. An essential component in meeting these challenges will be to develop a revised method of funding for primary, secondary and tertiary provision which would take account of surplus school places if they materialised and the recognition that further education cannot, due to a different curriculum and priorities, be funded on the same basis. This will ensure that the current high standards of educational provision can be maintained. It will also be necessary to respond to the potential expenditure reductions proposed in the recent review by the Comptroller and Auditor General.
Resource Allocation
The Council of Ministers has approved the allocation of funds required for the introduction of a banded funding methodology for Mont a l'Abbe School based on level of need, which will ensure that the Department can respond to the increasingly complex needs of children and young people in education. Responsibility for the administrative arrangements relating to the Aquasplash Leisure Pool was transferred to the Department in 2004 - additional funding reflects the revenue implications of management arrangements established prior to that date.
The budget has been reduced in respect of the following:-
· savings based on predicted pupil numbers at Highlands College;
· the number of students in higher education. The Student Finance budget had been supplemented by £1 million which the Council of
Ministers proposed be transferred from Vocational Education and an additional Resource Allocation of £300,000 in 2008, whilst the impact of the new Student Grant funding proposals was being phased in.
The majority of assumptions in respect of these areas are beyond the control of the Department, and the savings identified above will only be realised if demographic projections are correct.
Resource allocations in 2010 and 2011 relate to the transfer of funds to Overseas Aid.
Efficiency Savings 2009 -2011
The Department will achieve efficiency savings in 2009 amounting to £72,000 from a reorganisation of administrative and front of house support. Funds have been transferred to the corporate Procurement function which it is anticipated will lead to the identification of further Departmental savings in the future.

Health and Social Services
Health and Social Services
Minister's Introduction
The main areas of operation for Health and Social Services are:
Public health services
Acute health services
Community health services
Mental health services
Social services
Ambulance and patient transport services
The key projects and issues for the Department in 2009 are as follows:
- Strategic direction- New Directions- a plan for health and well being in the 21st century.
Jersey delivers high quality health and social care services, but the system as currently organised, faces significant challenges due to service and demographic pressures. The main ones are:
• long-term care needs of an ageing population
• the impact of healthcare inflation.
• fewer people of working-age to fund increasing health and social care services
• increased illness related to obesity, tobacco and alcohol consumption
• high rates of depression, heart disease and diabetes
• tackling the most common and preventable diseases that affect our health.
If nothing is done, Jersey, within 30 years, will have high levels of untreated disease and insufficient resources to deliver the required treatment.
Important strands of New Directions therefore include:
- Health for Life
The main focus is on remaining healthy into old age through the introduction of new health and social care services. Action plans have been devised in a number of crucial areas:
• Obesity and food
• Physical activity
• Tobacco
• Sexual health
• Mental health
• Alcohol
• Illegal drugs
An infrastructure for delivery will be required as well as establishing action groups for each of the critical areas.
- An integrated health service- It is proposed that GPs become the first point of contact for access to a wide range of health and community care services. This is part of a plan to create closer working and improved communication between those providing health and social care services in the community ( primary health care providers), and the Jersey General Hospital and other institutions (secondary care providers).
- Adding Years to Life- Jersey, along with many other developed economies, faces the challenge of caring for larger numbers of older people, with fewer working-age people paying social security and income tax to fund this care. Plans to combat this include:
• An independently managed compulsory insurance scheme to help pay for health and social care in old age.
• Community based care and self help programmes.
• Supporting independent living in the community with attention also being applied to those under 65 years of age who require specialised support and care.
• Consideration to be given to the impact of an ageing population during all policy and strategy development.
The New Directions plan is based on extensive, rigorous, world-wide research which aims to address the issues described. It will result in a programme of active health for island residents where people are given the tools to take their own health and well being seriously, resulting in a healthier population and slower growth in the future costs of health and social care.
In 2009 it is intended that New Directions will be a central element of the overarching strategy that the new Council of Ministers will bring before the States Assembly during the first 3 months.
- Primary Care Governance Unit
Health and Social Care professions have in place registration systems which govern the qualifications needed to enter their respective professions and, once a member of that profession, to govern the practitioner's professional behaviours.
Over recent years, this professional supervision by external registration bodies has been found to be insufficient and unsatisfactory having been highlighted by a series of scandals and medical disasters in the NHS. As a result the UK government will shortly begin implementing new systems of Governance that cover an organisation's systems and processes for monitoring and improving services.
Whilst governance arrangements within HSSD are relatively well- developed and HSSD is confident that the requirements for governance overall and compliance with established standards of external inspecting bodies can be met, the status of governance within general practice in Jersey is less robust.
To start the process of addressing this issue, the Public Health Department, in partnership with the Social Security Department will be supporting the Jersey Primary Care Body in developing appraisal for GPs alongside a new Primary Care Governance system which will need statutory basis. To this end a new Health Professionals Registration and Registration Law will be drafted.
- Integrated Care Record
The Integrated Care Record (ICR) Programme is a £12m project which will bring Health and Social Services' information infrastructure into the 21st century over the period 2008 to 2011. It is a key enabler of the New Directions vision for service delivery. Over the
three years of the implementation, the ICR will gradually build up a comprehensive record of client/patient events as a by product of daily administrative and care activities. More and more of the care documentation will become electronic as the different components of the solution are rolled out in a phased way. The opportunity will be taken to review and streamline how we work to get the best out of the new technology.
In 2009, the ICR will:
• Replace the old health administration systems from the 1970's which are no longer fit for purpose, and are a threat to our ability to run our 'business as usual'.
• Implement new systems planned to support decision making and allow improvements to care and productivity.
• Introduce computers to take the strain out of administration in the Community for the first time.
• Begin the process of linking to the existing specialist systems which we wish to retain.
• Begin to build the electronic records of care and make them available at the point of care, according to need and security permissions.
• Make it easier to analyse what we do, and how well we do it.
All this will help us to structure services better around individual needs and reduce wasted time for our clients and patients. It will also enable us to plan better for the future, to support inspection and quality review and thus become more accountable to the tax payer.
- The sustainable hospital
The sustainable hospital is a generic term for the redesign of acute secondary care to facilitate a more efficient and effective service. Investment will be targeted at the prevention of unnecessary admissions and the promotion of rapid and effective discharge.
Action will also be taken to support the development of a hospital safe from hospital- acquired infections (MRSA, C difficile) through the provision of more single room accommodation to enable more effective isolation and treatment of infected patients.
- Children's Services
The launch of various reviews and enquiries into children's services' in Jersey during 2007 and 2008, together with the appointment of a new Chair for the Jersey Child Protection Committee from outside the Island, are all likely to lead to a new focus on the needs of a range of services in this specialist sector.
As Health and Social Services has full operational responsibility for the Children's Service (under Social Services), and shares a similar responsibility for the Children's Executive with Education, Sport & Culture and Home Affairs, it is likely that the outcomes and recommendations from any reports will have significant resource and structure' implications for the development of future provision.
- Occupational Health Services
Worklessness causes social exclusion, poverty and dependency. This can be a ruthless cycle that sadly infiltrates families and whilst the huge financial burden on the island is indeed measurable, the human costs are largely hidden.
In collaboration with the Social Security Department; Health and Social Services aims to modernise the mechanisms of support for the sick and injured, with a bias on keeping people at work, or getting people back to work as soon as possible.
This initiative has 3 main areas of focus:
• Release of funds for primary and public health care through changes in law.
• Provision of a robust Occupational Health Service, to support the Social Security Department in its "return to work" strategies.
• Improved management of absenteeism in the States of Jersey – this being a major theme to be tackled as part of the present States Spending Review.

Financial Summary 2009 - 2011
Sustainability of services, in a climate of ever increasing demand is the Department's key financial challenge over the next 3 years. A significant amount of investment will therefore be made in the provision of long term care, supporting care in the community and also specialist treatment in the UK. In addition, investment will be made in enhancing the quality of our services and ensuring that we keep up with technological advances, including new drugs. As part of the introduction of the new HR system, H&SS has taken the opportunity to clarify budgeted FTE and incorporate the resulting figures, which are 213FTE higher, into the 2009 Business Plan.
It is important to note that there has been no increase in actual/budgeted staff in post, above and beyond those signed off as part of prior years' Business Plans. By updating this figure, the relationship between budget (£) and budgeted FTE is clear.
Work has been done to refine the allocation of direct/overheads across the service areas, which has led to movement between them.
Resource Allocation
Service growth amounting to £8,360,200 has been allocated to the Department for the period 2009 to 2011. During this period, in addition to supporting the cost pressures outlined in the section above, investment will be made in reducing the number of Hospital Acquired Infections (e.g. MRSA), Social Service provision for Adult, Children and Special Needs clients, Mental Health Services and Health Screening Programmes. The investment has been planned to underpin the New Directions Strategy and directed towards addressing priority areas where there are currently unmet health/social care needs.
Efficiency Savings 2009 - 2011
In 2009 the Department will make efficiency savings in line with the Change Programme amounting to £114,100, through a range of measures, which will include: more effective use of temporary staff, procurement savings and a review of our UK healthcare arrangements.

Minister's Introduction
The main areas of operation for the Home Affairs Department are:
• Home Affairs Executive
• States of Jersey Police
• Fire and Rescue Service
• Customs and Immigration Service
• HM Prison
• Building a Safer Society
• Jersey Field Squadron
• Superintendent Registrar
The key projects and issues for the Department in 2009 are as follows:
Home Affairs Executive
Following a decision of the Council of Ministers funds of £500,000 previously provided for the implementation of discrimination legislation will be diverted to supplement the Prison budget from 2009. Consequently, the implementation of discrimination legislation as drafted would require new growth funding.
In 2009 expenditure related to the Criminal Injuries Compensation Scheme will be funded outside the Department's cash limit allowing £177,000 to be diverted to fund the financial implications of the Sex Offenders (Jersey) Law and £98,000 for the establishment of a Vetting and Barring' office as a joint initiative with the Education, Sport and Culture and Health and Social Services Departments to enable access to the UK Criminal Records Bureau.
States of Jersey Police
Each year, the States of Jersey Police's planning process identifies operational policing priorities intended to deliver tangible improvements in community safety. Inherent to this process is the development of a Strategic Threat Assessment which reviews trends in crime and community safety, identifies emerging issues and the operational responses open to the Police in terms of crime prevention, intelligence gathering and enforcement initiatives. This in turn drives organisational improvement projects that align internal processes and resources and staff training to deliver the policing strategy for the coming year. This planning process cannot be completed until later in 2008; however, no significant changes are foreseen to the current operational priorities. The means by which these objectives are delivered may change in response to the ongoing evaluation of current operational activity.
In 2009 funding of £177,000 will be available to fund the financial implications of the implementation of the Sex Offenders (Jersey) Law.
Fire and Rescue Service
The main areas of operation for the States of Jersey Fire and Rescue Service are Emergency Response, Fire Protection and Community Prevention. Emergency Response refers to the operational preparedness and capability to respond to fires and other emergency incidents quickly, safely and effectively. Fire Protection refers to the specialist technical and legislative activities which help to secure a safe built environment that protects people and property should a fire occur. Community Prevention refers to community safety education, awareness and partnership activities which help to prevent fire and other emergency incidents occurring.
Customs and Immigration Service
Funding pressures within the Service have been recognised with the allocation of additional funds of £250,000 in 2009. This will allow for the Service to operate without having to carry vacancies to meet expenditure targets and may provide the opportunity to recruit additional staff on the frontier teams.
It is the firm aim of the UK authorities that from October 2010 all British passports applied for in the United Kingdom will be issued centrally. From that date the capability will exist to issue biometric passports containing both facial imagery (as in present biometric passport) and fingerprint. The Island will have to make appropriate arrangements with the UK for the retention of its own style of passport while meeting the high standard of security that will be a mandatory requirement.
HM Prison
Following a review of the Prison budget in 2007, additional funds of £1,000,000 have been made available to increase the base budget from 2009. In addition, the Council of Ministers has agreed that funds of £500,000 previously provided for the implementation of discrimination legislation should be diverted to supplement the Prison budget. The effect of this decision increases the base budget of the prison by £1,500,000 from 2009. If matched with the ability to recruit the appropriate staff, this should allow the overall performance of the Prison to reach acceptable international standards in the coming years.
Jersey Field Squadron
The Jersey Field Squadron will continue to maintain Jersey's defence contribution to the UK. A this element of the budget is outside the control of the Department amendments to the Inter- Governmental Agreement are being discussed with the Ministry of Defence to seek to achieve more financial certainty.
Other service areas will continue to meet the Department's objectives during 2009.

Financial Summary 2009 - 2011
Home Affairs services are, by their nature, significantly demand - led and therefore changes in circumstances and conditions require an immediate reprioritisation of resources. Production of plans, such as the Annual Policing Plan and the Fire and Rescue Service's Integrated Risk Management Plan, ensure that the Services contribute to the States overall objectives and plan their resources as pro-actively as possible based on best practice and custom and practice. During the period 2009 - 2011 there will undoubtedly be changes in priorities which will need to be managed within individual service areas. Such changes include :
• the impact of future pay settlements over and above the amount included in cash limits;
• the cost of implementing any recommendations following the International Monetary Fund inspection of financial crime investigation and international co-operation;
• any additional costs of policing events if the States do not approve a new "User Pays" policy;
• the increased revenue costs of new prison and police buildings;
• the management of "on board" controls within the Customs and Immigration Service.
In addition, with over 80% of the budget attributable to staff costs, the continuous identification and achievement of significant savings is more difficult given States manpower policies.
Resource Allocation Process
The additional funding agreed for 2009 recognises the under funding of the Prison and Customs and Immigration Service, which was recognised by the Comptroller and Auditor General in his recent Spending Review. The additional funds of £1,000,000 allocated for the Prison, along with the reallocation of funding originally allocated for the implementation of discrimination legislation, will bring the Prison closer to the base budget requirement identified in the review of the Prison budget undertaken in 2007.
Funding pressures within the Customs and Immigration Service have been recognised with the allocation of additional funds of £250,000 in 2009. This will allow for the Service to operate without having to carry vacancies to meet expenditure targets.
As a result of expenditure related to the Criminal Injuries Compensation Scheme being funded outside the Department's cash limit from 2009 the budget has been reallocated to fund the financial implications of the Sex Offenders (Jersey) Law and the establishment of a "Vetting and Barring" office.
Efficiency Savings 2009 -2011
The Department will seek to achieve its contribution to the change Programme and procurement savings by working closely with Corporate Procurement to deliver procurement initiatives across all Service areas.

Minister's Introduction
The Social Housing Property Plan was adopted by the States Assembly on 17th July 2007. It represented a significant milestone in achieving a number of the States strategic aims, not least the aim to increase the level of home ownership in the Island through the sale of some 800 States Rental Homes to States tenants over a period of 10 years, through an innovative shared equity scheme. That programme of sales is already underway and will continue apace in 2009.
The income from those sales will be put to good use in refurbishing the States owned social rental stock at minimum cost to the Public. It will also be used to acquire significant numbers of retirement homes to meet the needs of our ageing population. That programme is already underway with large schemes in progress at Samares, the Cedars and Clos de Roncier. A detailed and costed forward capital programme has been designed to bring the stock up to the decent homes standard and will increasingly seek to incorporate sustainability principles aimed at minimising the impact of the homes on our environment.
The Review of Social Housing undertaken by Professor Chistine Whitehead from the Centre for Housing and Planning Research at the University of Cambridge is an independent, in depth study of social housing provision in the Island. Professor Whitehead's review will also consider methods for delivering appropriate regulation applicable to and agreed by all local social housing providers. Perhaps one of the most significant aspects of the review will be recommendations regarding the future status of States Rental Accommodation. The findings will be published for consultation late in 2008 with, it is anticipated, a debate on the recommendations in 2009. Implementing the findings of the Review will be a major piece of work which is eagerly anticipated by the Department.
The Housing Department is working ever closer with colleagues at the Planning Department. The Housing Needs Survey, Jersey Homebuy Proposition and recent proposals for the rezoning of land for life-long homes are all illustrative of that close and collaborative working relationship.
The relationship between the Housing Department and its Tenants is vitally important and significant work in this area has led to the establishment of a Tenants Forum. Collaborative working with the Forum has already led to improvements in the management of issues such as anti-social behaviour and capital refurbishment projects. Building on these successes the Department is increasingly committed that tenants will have a powerful and meaningful voice in the determination of policy and the provision of housing services. Tenant participation initiatives will continue unabated in 2009.
The Housing Department continues to play a corporate role in the provision of services and has played a particularly important part in the successful introduction of Income Support. Other initiatives such as, Building a Safer Society, (BASS) and the recently presented Social Policy Framework continue to receive significant input from the Housing Department.
As I have said before, it would not be possible to achieve such demanding objectives if one did not have such dedicated and professional staff. The need for continual development and training has never been more important. Whether through active participation in the Organisational Development programme or the Investors in People charter, the Department will continue to ensure staff are equipped to deliver the highest standards in customer service.

Financial Summary 2009 - 2011
The overall strategy for the Housing Department over the next 3 years is to delivery the Social Housing Property Plan as agreed by the States in July 2007. The business plan for 2008 reflected the key financial changes required to deliver the Property Plan and so the business plan for 2009 is simply a continuation of the 2008 strategy. Following the implementation of Income Support in January 2008, the Housing Department no longer has any accountability for Housing subsidy schemes.
Resource Allocation
As mentioned above, resources were allocated in 2008 to deliver the Property Plan. The business plan for 2009 therefore reflects the removal of one-off investments in 2008 and the generation of additional income. Additional income is being generated in 2009 from rent increases in October 2008 and 2009, but this income is reduced as a result of lost rental income from property sales and refurbishments. Significantly, the loss of income at Ann Court will total £470K in 2009. The Department is mitigating these losses by undertaking a review of recently improved properties to ensure the rental income charged is appropriate.
Efficiency Savings 2009 - 2011
The final year of the five year Change Programme of Efficiency Savings are due in 2009 and will be largely driven by Procurement initiatives led by the Treasury and Resources Department. As a result of Income Support and encouragement of payment by direct debit, commission charges should reduce further in 2009.The Housing Department will work with the procurement team to drive down costs of postage and generate ideas for further efficiencies in voids. In addition, the billing process with Jersey water is being changed in July 2008 which will drive further savings in 2009. Finally, the regeneration of a number of family estates will see the replacement of oil fired heating systems with Electric heating, leading to a reduction in annual servicing costs.

Minister's Introduction
The main areas of operation for the Planning and Environment Department are:
Planning and Building Services, comprising
• Policy and Projects
• Historic Built Environment
• Development Control
• Building Control
• Mapping
Environment, comprising
• Environmental Management and Rural Economy
• Environmental Policy and Awareness
• Environmental Protection
• Fisheries and Marine Resources
• Meteorology
• Veterinary Services
The key projects and issues for the Department in 2009 are as follows:
Development Control
During 2009 the Development Control section will focus on improving the efficiency and effectiveness of its service to the public. Introducing a new fee structure for commercial developers will enable the Department to commit to reducing waiting times and raising standards across the whole development control function.
In addition to service improvement, it is anticipated that the Department will handle approximately 2,400 planning applications during the course of the year and continue in its drive to raise design standards.
Policy and Projects
If development in the Island is to be sustainable – having regard to economic, social and environmental objectives – there is a need to ensure that the Island Plan remains up-to-date, robust and fit-for-purpose. The Review of the Island Plan, which began in 2007, will continue to be progressed during 2009 when the draft Island Plan will be published for an extensive process of consultation - including a formal Examination in Public. Work will continue on the realisation of the Esplanade Quarter Masterplan, the implementation of the St Helier Development and Regeneration Strategy and the development of a comprehensive framework for the protection of the historic built environment.
Building Control
During 2009 the building control section will continue to strive to improve building standards through regular site inspections of works in progress. Particular emphasis will be given to helping developers and householders comply with the bye-law requirements relating to improving energy efficiency in buildings which were introduced in 2008. The section will also continue work on changing the building bye-law requirements relating to fire safety in an effort to further improve building standards in this regard.
Mapping and IT
Work will continue to ensure that the Jersey Digital Map is robust and up-to-date. In addition, the Department will focus on the development of a web based planning service.
Environment Division
Environmental Management and Rural Economy (EMRE)
A diverse, working countryside is one of Jersey's key assets. The significant functions of EMRE allow for the promotion of growth, efficiencies and diversification within the countryside whilst protecting and enhancing Jersey's natural environment.
In 2009 the ongoing implementation of the Rural Economy Strategy, the Countryside Renewal Scheme, and the Biodiversity Strategy in conjunction with the provision of specialist advice and research, will allow EMRE to continue to facilitate the delivery of important economic and environmental outputs from our natural and working countryside.
In addition, EMRE manages some 600 hectares of land for conservation purposes. A robust monitoring regime ensures that the 250 projects carried out on the sites achieve the desired objectives of improving the condition of the habitats and species. Any areas which meet the criteria for SSI designation and have not yet been designated will be considered in 2009.
Environmental Policy and Awareness
This section co-ordinates and facilitates the development of new and emerging areas of environmental policy across the range of States activities. 2009 will see a focus on realising the vision 'Keeping Jersey Special' and achieving our objective of a 'Sustainable Island Community'. Developing and progressing the appropriate supporting policies and communicating these to the public will be critical in reaching our aspiration of an environmentally responsible Island. In particular, wise resource management will be fundamental and there will be a continuation of the implementation of energy policy to ensure we are on the right track for Jersey's carbon reduction target. The establishment of 'Sustainable Energy Jersey' will be vital and the role of this organisation will be to advise Islanders on energy efficiency. The States of Jersey will need to lead by example and the development of an Environmental Action Plan for all Departments will realise environmental benefits as well as efficiency savings.
With ever increasing development pressure, the administration and review of Environmental Impact Assessments for major projects will continue to be a key area of work, particularly for existing and proposed new developments on the Waterfront, as well as the development of new policy for Strategic Environmental Assessments. This section will also be involved in ongoing input to the Island Plan Review and ensuring that we remain on target to meet Jersey's obligations under Multi- lateral Environmental Agreements by 2010.
The ECO-ACTIVE campaign drives our programme of environmental education and awareness and in 2009 will continue to work in partnership with the private sector through the ECO-ACTIVE business accreditation scheme. In addition there will be a focus on travel and in particular 'the school run' with a continuation of the development of sustainable travel plans that encourage alternatives to travel to school by private car.
Environmental Protection
Two important pieces of legislation to better manage water resources and waste came into force in 2007. In 2009 waste operators will continue to be regulated against the conditions of agreed licences. The introduction of environmentally sound internal waste management practices ensures compliance with the Basel Convention and will enable Jersey to put in place procedures for reinstating the export of hazardous waste.
Subject to approval by the States, the Water Resources (Jersey) Law 2007 is expected to come into force in January 2009. Environmental Protection will focus on processing, assessing and issuing Water Abstraction Licenses and registration of sources of supply during 2009.
Regulation of the Water Pollution (Jersey) 2000 and Agricultural Inspectorate duties will continue in 2009.
Fisheries and Marine Resources
We will continue to regulate and support commercial and leisure fisheries, aquaculture and promote care of the marine habitat in 2009. New fisheries measures will be introduced as necessary to keep in line with changes in EU regulations and amendments under the Granville Bay Treaty. Working closely with stakeholders actions developed within the Integrated Coastal Zone Management Strategy will need to be adopted to ensure sustainable management of the marine environment in 800 square miles of Jersey waters.
Meteorology
Jersey Met aims to deliver the best and most reliable weather service for the Channel Islands for all sectors of industry and the community. In support to this aim we will focus on-going quality management development as part of the ISO9001 colon 2000.
Veterinary Services
High standards of animal health and welfare are necessary for the benefit of the animals themselves and to protect society from the impact of important animal and fish diseases. Routine welfare inspections and response to reports of poor welfare will continue. Animal by-products legislation introduced in 2008 will be implemented in 2009. We shall continue working to protect public health by ensuring compliance with Food Hygiene legislation in the EU Approved States Abattoir and carry out shellfish monitoring in line with requirements. A major review and introduction of new Animal and Fish Health legislation is planned.

Financial Summary 2009 - 2011
The Department's 2009 cash limit incorporates the Minister's far-reaching improvement programme for the Planning and Building Services Division.
In recent years, demand for planning and building services has outstripped the Department's capacity to deliver to a satisfactory standard; case loads far exceed the UK benchmarked levels.
Growth in resources is planned which will be funded by increases in commercial planning and building fees. It is proposed that the increased charges will be targeted at applications for commercial use and applications for residential development involving more than 5 dwellings – clearly, the target is the commercial development sector rather than the householder. In the main it is these applications which make the greatest demands on the Department's time, particularly the large-scale office and residential developments.
The increase in fees will result in both the gross revenue expenditure and income of the Planning and Environment Department to increase by approximately £700,000 per annum. The increase in resources will result in 9 additional posts, of which 3 are J-category.
The additional resources provided from increasing charges will enable the implementation of a far-reaching programme of service improvements. This programme has two main aims:
- to improve standards of building and development in Jersey, by improving design and creating better buildings; and
- to raise the standards of customer service, by setting tough targets for service delivery with a firm timetable for decision- making on all applications as articulated within a Service Level Commitment.
Resource Allocation
The Resource allocations in 2010 and 2011 is the allocation of monies to Overseas Aid as approved by the Council of Ministers.
Efficiency Savings 2009 - 2011
The Department will make efficiency savings amounting to £6,800 in 2009. The current transport policy will be reviewed to drive savings in vehicle costs. Administration costs have also been target not only to drive savings but also to encourage environmentally friendly behaviour. The Department has also been tasked with giving consideration to privatising' the Meteorological Office.

Social Security
Minister's Introduction
The core objectives for the Social Security Department are:
• Support people to achieve and maintain an acceptable standard of living.
• Provide opportunities for higher skills and better employment.
• Help employers and employees to work well together for their mutual benefit and the economy of the island.
• Deliver benefits and high quality services, now and in the future.
The key initiatives and issues for the Department in 2009 are:
- Income Support
2009 will see the first full year of the Income Support Scheme, following implementation in 2008. A key development within Income Support for 2009 will be the introduction of a more coherent framework for the funding of residential care for those without the means to meet the cost themselves.
- Ageing Population
The ongoing consultation programme, widening the understanding of the consequences and opportunities presented by the ageing society and receiving feedback in regards to the options for addressing the issues, will form the cornerstone of further consultation and proposals in respect of pension and other income provision beyond current retirement age.
- Long-term Care Scheme
The costs of long term care are increasingly an issue for people facing the prospect of requiring such care. Those with insufficient income or assets can currently expect support from within the Income Support Scheme, yet the increasing size of such a burden upon the taxpayer, combined with an increasing demand for a mechanism by which those faced with funding their own care can make adequate provision for that care, has led to a growing momentum for a compulsory insurance scheme to be introduced in the Island. The Department will consult, research and bring forward proposals for consideration by the States.
- Employment Reform
During 2008 proposals will be made to the States under Phase 2 of Employment Reform, introducing redundancy rights and the protection of employees involved in business mergers and acquisitions (TUPE). If these proposals are adopted they will be implemented during 2009.
Legislation will also be prepared for the first stage of introducing rights in respect of parental leave, flexible working and family friendly initiatives further to the recommendations of the Employment Forum, with the view to these being introduced during the year.
- Incapacity Benefits Reform
The Department will also be implementing actions arising for the review of Incapacity Benefits. These actions are likely to include revisions to the medical assessment process and early intervention initiatives, to ensure people return to the workplace in sufficient time to avoid losing their jobs, whenever possible.
- Skills and Supported Work
The Department will work together with our partners in the Skills Executive to enhance the opportunities of all the Island community to participate in the workforce.
- Supplementation
The costs of supplementation are currently forecast to exceed the sum allocated within the cash limit proposed for 2009. The department is currently formulating proposals to limit or reduce the costs of supplementation. These proposals if adopted by the States, will allow costs to be maintained within the cash limit. However, if not, agreed further funds will need to be made available.

Financial Summary 2009 - 2011
The total budget for the Department has increased by £3.12million since 2008. This increase consists of pay and non-pay inflation, the annual uprating of benefit payments and supplementation, offset by the phased reduction in transitional funding. The Department has also received growth funding to meet demographic pressures upon the residential care cost within Income Support and funding for the proposed Food Costs GST Offset Bonus Scheme. Reductions in funding have resulted through savings to be derived from corporate procurement initiatives that have been transferred to fund the Procurement Strategy. These savings, in the main, are to be derived from corporate contracts negotiated by Treasury and Resources. These increases have been offset in part by transfers to other Departments.
Budgets for 2010 and 2011 are to increase by 4.4% and 3.7% respectively. Both years include a provision for the GST Bonus Scheme and further reductions in the baseline as a result of the phased reduction in protection to claimants who are affected by the introduction of the new Income Support Scheme.
Resource Allocation
The resource allocation process for 2009 resulted in a total net increase of £0.5m in the baseline budget of the Department. Phased reduction in protection given to income support claimants are outweighed by increases such as a result of demographic pressures upon residential care costs; the new allowance to offset the impact on the costs of food resulting from the intoduction of GST (given to people who fall in the gap between income support and income tax); and an additional allocation to Jersey Employment Trust to meet ongoing revenue costs as approved by Council of Ministers. There will be further movements in the baseline during 2010 and 2011 as set out in the financial summary above and due to the continued phased reduction of transitional funding as approved by Council of Ministers.
Efficiency Savings 2009 -2011
Since 2005 the Department has directly implemented £51.7k of efficiency savings.This is a significant achievement given 94% of expenditure consists of benefits and other costs which are statutory and driven by legislation. In 2009 further savings will be achieved in support functions and administration. The Department has also supported the transfer of £38,600 in 2009 to Treasury and Resources in support of the Corporate Procurement Strategy.

Transport and Technical Services
Minister's Introduction
The main areas of operation for Transport and Technical Services are:
• Waste Management
• Transport
• Municipal Services
The key projects and issues for the Department in 2008 are as follows:
- Waste Management
In 2009 the Department will be pushing ahead with the implementation of the Solid Waste Strategy. Subject to the approval of the project by the Sates, the initial phases of the construction of the waste disposal plant to replace the Bellozanne incinerator should be well underway. It will not be until 2011, that the new plant can take over from the old one, which has been experiencing a growing amount of maintenance and breakdown problems. It is expected that keeping the old plant operational will continue to be a challenge for the Department throughout 2009 and until it is decommissioned in 2011.
In May 2008, I set a new recycling target of at least 36% by 2018. The public has responded well to our call to recycle and has exceeded annual targets previously set. However, in order to achieve the new target the public will have to be supported by the provision of appropriate facilities and systems which keep pace with recycling growth. Additional funding will be required to meet the high costs of recycling. It is also important for the Parishes to work with TTS to establish a new and improved doorstep collection system if Jersey is going to reach the 36% target.
The Liquid Waste Strategy will be going to the States for approval in 2009. It will be imperative that a sustainable funding route is found to ensure proper support for the ongoing maintenance of the Island's drainage infrastructure and upgrade of the Sewage Treatment Works. A key question for the States to consider, is whether they want to fund new foul sewer extensions to improve on the 87% of the Island currently connected.
Over the last few years the Department has been undertaking drainage projects to separate the surface water running into the drains which does not require treatment, from the sewage which does, thereby reducing the amount of flow through the sewage treatment works. This will continue in 2009 as budgets will allow.
The second phase of the Odour Control project at the Bellozanne sewage treatment works will be implemented and it is hoped this will further reduce the unpleasant smells experienced in the Bellozanne area.
- Transport
Subject to the approval of the States and funding being available, the Department will be developing an implementation plan for the Integrated Travel and Transport Plan (ITTP). The recent change in the global energy market will inevitably have a significant effect on the public's choice of travel and the ITTP must deliver new and innovative systems to meet this demand.
The redevelopment of multi storey car parks is progressing in line with the EDAW Report that concluded that a new multi storey car park at Ann Court should be constructed to serve the commuter, resident and shopper at the northern part of St Helier. This project will be progressed through the planning stages in 2009.
Passenger numbers on the buses have been increasing annually and in 2007 nearly 3million passengers were carried which is a 10% increase on the previous year. This trend is continuing into 2008, with the figures for the first quarter showing a 6% increase. Having awarded the three year contract extension to Connex for the integrated Island bus service, it is essential that in 2009, any rationalisation of the service is developed so that by 2010 a full specification of the service can be produced in preparation for a tendering exercise to be undertaken for the new contract to commence in 2012.
- Municipal Services
TTS will be reprioritising the highway resurfacing programme taking account of rising costs and competing demands on the Department's Capital Infrastructure Maintenance vote from waste and sea defences.
TTS will continue to implement the Sea Defence Strategy to ensure that critical areas of the Island are adequately protected.
The Jersey Annual Social Survey 2007 indicates that there continues to be a high degree of public satisfaction with the cleanliness of public areas and, in particular the standard of parks and gardens. TTS always strives to maintain the highest possible standards for these important public areas. However, the continuing funding pressures on the Department mean it is a challenge to ensure these standards are maintained on a year on year basis.

The States, at their meeting of 9th July 2008, approved the proposed replacement for the Bellozanne Incinerator and the recommended funding route. P73/2008 (T&R) provided for a release of funds of £102.81 million from the Consolidated Fund to the Transport and Technical Services Department in 2008. Consequently, there is no requirement for the States to further approve this allocation within the Plan.
A consequence of funding the proposed replacement EfW Plant from the Consolidated Fund in 2008 is to remove the requirement to provide future allocations, previously set at £7 million per annum, to finance external borrowing. The allocations of £7 million approved in principle for 2010 - 2013 have been deleted from the revised Capital Programme allocation, this having the effect of reducing the call from the Consolidated Fund in these, and subsequent, years.
The proposed allocation of £7 million in 2009 has been retained but converted into an allocation to the States risk element of the Capital Reserve.

Financial Summary 2009 - 2011
The Department faces major challenges in the years ahead which include - the implementation of the Solid Waste Strategy, the Liquid Waste Strategy, the Integrated Travel and Transport Plan and the Town Park - in addition to maintaining the Island's key infrastructure of roads, sewers and sea defences.
The significant financial issues facing the Department continue to be: Revenue
• The increasing maintenance costs of the incinerator as it comes to the end of its useful life, which results in having to stockpile and bale refuse for storage and disposal until a new plant has been commissioned.
• The additional annual revenue costs of £450,000 per annum required to meet the departments proposed recycling targets. This additional revenue will be subject to a bid from Environmental Taxes. In the interim, the recycling initiatives will be rolled out subject to the availability of funds.
• The unreliability of the Sewage Treatment Works as the existing secondary treatment works comes to the end of its useful life at which time it will be replaced with a more traditional system with proven capabilities.
The department will require the flexibility to divert funds from other service areas during the course of the year if it is required to significant unplanned maintenance expenditure.
Capital
The Department currently receives a capital allocation of £4.5 million per annum to fund maintenance on the existing drainage and highways networks and the Island Sea Defences.
Recent reviews of the Island's drainage and highway's network indicate that the Department is inadequately resourced to maintain the current condition of the Island's Infrastructure Network and unless the Department receives additional funds there will, inevitably, be a further deterioration in the condition of the network. As a result, an increased proportion of the budget will need to be spent on the safety work, further reducing the funds available for restorative maintenance.
Bids for increased future funding have been made. However, the Department has been unsuccessful in receiving the funds it requires to maintain the existing network and prevent deterioration to the Island's Infrastructure Assets.
Resource Allocation Process
The 2010 and 2011 budget have increased by 2.2% and 3.8% respectively, principally due to pay awards. £340,600 is granted to the department in 2011 to fund the revenue costs associated with the Town Park.
Efficiency Savings 2009 -2011
The Department has been allocated efficiency savings amounting to £27,000. These savings will be achieved through a number of measures which include making efficiencies on the cost of administration, vehicles and stationery.

Treasury and Resources
Treasury and Resources
Minister's Introduction
The main areas of operation for the Treasury and Resources Department are:
To support the delivery of the States strategic objectives by maintaining sound and sustainable public finances and effectively managing the financial and property assets of the States.
The divisions of the Department are:
• Treasury
• Income Tax
• Property Holdings
The key projects and issues for the Department in 2009 are as follows: Treasury
There is no doubt that Jersey is experiencing a period of substantial change, at a time when the Island needs to curtail its expenditure in accordance with public expectations. As this Plan illustrates the Treasury and Resources Department has set an ambitious agenda for 2009 in line with the efficiency savings it committed to in 2008.
The Treasury and Resources Department takes the lead for all taxation policy, for planning States income and expenditure, for ensuring the most efficient and effective use of all States assets including investments and property, and for the allocation and monitoring of public sector manpower. This is taking place against a backdrop of reducing resources as the Treasury and Resources Department continues to commit to the efficiency savings derived from the Finance Transformation in 2006.
In the Procurement section much work was under taken in 2008 to lay the foundations and build the infrastructure for a professional integrated corporate procurement function. Work will continue during 2009 to consolidate and embed systems and practices and to develop skills and procurement capacity across the States in line with the Procurement Strategy
Major initiatives which will be progressed during 2009 include:
• Implementation and integration of new processes and procedures to ensure the States accounts are being produced in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP)
• Developing longer term capital planning for maintenance and replacement of States property and assets
• Continued integration of comprehensive and consistent reporting of States financial, manpower and benchmarking performance information
• Consolidation of the Procurement Strategy in 2009 to derive a long term savings strategy across the States
• Developing and implementing a risk management strategy across the States
Income Tax Office
Income Tax is facing significant changes in 2009 with the introduction and successful implementation of several new tax initiatives:
• A Goods and Services Tax – the Primary Law was approved by the States in April 2007 with the tax effective and operational from 6th May, 2008.
• The 0/10% corporate tax regime which was approved by the States in January 2007 and effective and operational from 3rd June, 2008.
• Potential new pensions provisions to simplify and liberalise the existing pensions tax legislation.
All these matters have undergone extensive consultation and still require considerable amounts of work for the Income Tax Office in terms of education and assistance for those businesses affected, as well as the more practical day to day considerations which need to be taken into account in their administration.
In addition, Income Tax is in its third year of successfully implementing the requirements of the European Union Savings Directive which collected £35 million for distribution to member countries in 2008 (including £8.75 million to the Treasury ), as well as meeting its obligations under the Tax Information Exchange Agreements – two have already been signed with the USA and the Netherlands and are currently active and operational, and a number of other Agreements are currently being negotiated around the world.
The Income Tax Instalment System is now in its third year and is operating successfully – 2009 also sees the continued phased abolition of tax allowances for those on higher incomes.
As well as handling these administrative, legal and operational challenges Income Tax must continue to service and assess their 105,000 personal and corporate taxpayers from whom the Income Tax Office collected £432.5 million (net) in 2007.
Property Holdings
2008 is a further year of consolidation and data gathering within Property Holdings that will provide the springboard for implementation of major property initiatives across the States in 2009.
The key task of obtaining a full understanding of the property estate is being achieved through:
• The first ever comprehensive valuation of States land and building assets under GAAP requirements;
• Production of a full condition survey of buildings under the direct management of Property Holdings - to provide a robust assessment of the extent and value of backlog maintenance together with the means to develop a comprehensive forward maintenance programme;
• Development of a suite of property policies;
• Enhanced supplier management and procurement processes;
• Survey information from all States office users to inform the office strategy;
• Procurement and implementation of an integrated property data management system;
In 2009, Property Holdings business activities will focus on the means of delivering more effective use of States property. A key element will be the implementation of an office accommodation strategy, as the first strand of a five year property portfolio plan, with the introduction of internal rents initially for office accommodation in 2009 and all other properties in 2010.
Property Holdings is currently undergoing an internal organisational restructure to accommodate the influx of resources from other States departments. Once complete, Property Holdings will evaluate the potential to become a trading body from 2010.
Property Holdings will continue to manage the delivery of building works in the capital programme, with the redevelopment of Mont A L'Abbe school main building being the major new project commencing in 2009.
Revenue savings targets have been very challenging to deliver and have required prioritisation of resources to statutory and health and safety items. Analysis of the results of the condition survey will provide a better base to determine an appropriate base level of funding, which will be benchmarked against suitable comparators.
The capital receipts target of £3m by the end 2008 from disposal of surplus assets is on schedule. A further tranche of surplus assets and development opportunities have been identified for 2009 and, subject to approval, should enable Property Holdings to meet its target of achieve £4 million form sales in 2009.

Financial Summary 2009 - 2011
The total budget for the Department has increased by £0.48 million since 2008, mainly due to the effect of pay and non-pay inflation and transfers of savings to be derived from corporate procurement initiatives that have been transferred from other Departments to fund the Procurement Strategy. These savings, in the main, are to be derived from corporate contracts negotiated by Treasury and Resources. These increases have been offset in part by transfers to other Departments.
Budgets for 2010 and 2011 are to increase by 7.9% and 4.0% respectively. 2010 includes a provision, granted by the Council of Ministers, for Stateswide unfunded pressures. This Stateswide provision has only been included in the Treasury and Resources cash limit for adminstrative purposes. The increase in the 2010 excluding this provision is 2.1%.
Resource Allocation
The Resource allocations in 2010 and 2011 relate to the allocation of monies to Overseas Aid as approved by Council of Ministers. As discussed in the financial summary above, Council of Ministers have also approved allocation of monies for a provision for Stateswide unfunded pressures in 2010. In 2011 Council of Minister have approved an allocation to address the implications of lost revenues as a result of the Town Park project.
Efficiency Savings 2009 -2011
Since 2005 Treasury and Resources has directly implemented £2.5million of efficiency savings and facilitated a futher £6.0million via corporate efficiency initiatives. Consolidation of the corporate Procurement Strategy will also precipitate additional savings in the future.
A £600,000 Property Saving in 2008 is the final part of the 3 year maintenance savings programme totalling. A period of stability will be required between the years 2009-2011 to allow the Department to identify accurately the base operating cost of the estate. This will enable the preparation and implementation of a property portfolio plan with a medium term objective to provide a sustainable estate, through improved policies combined with disposal of surplus property and rationalisation of the remaining estate.

Economic Development Jersey Airport
Jersey Airport
Aim:
The aim of Jersey Airport is to provide an Airport that strives to meet:
• the economic and social needs of the Island;
• the expectations of passengers by providing facilities that are equal to, or better than those found in comparable UK and European regional airports;
• the expectations of airlines in handling their aircraft and passengers in a safe and secure environment.
Financial Implications 2009 to 2011
This period brings major challenges and opportunities for Jersey Airport. The period will be influenced by a number of key activities and will be characterised by:
• A continued focus on the growth of new routes and the development and retention of existing routes. This will involve continued close co-operation with the Economic Development Department.
• Major capital investments in critical operational infrastructure e.g. Apron replacement programme, Runway resurfacing and new Air traffic Control building and tower;
• A focus on safety and security compliance and the associated increase in costs.
• The development and progressive implementation of a strong corporate ethic including adherence to best practice governance principles;
• A need for Jersey Airport to be competitive in its charging regime in order to ensure existing airline services are sustainable and growth is encouraged
• Improved amenity and customer service; and
• A continued focus on the Airport's ongoing financial viability
These elements will variously have impacts on operating and capital costs as the airport comes into line with international best practice. Recent compliance audits confirm the requirement for investment in both areas to achieve this. This cost pressure and reduction to the annual operating surplus, and the associated challenge to fund the ongoing capital programme, is compounded by inflationary pressures. This particularly relates to staff costs which are a major and necessary element of the Airport's operation.
There are strong market pressures not to increase Airport charges, the main source of income. Therefore to help offset some of the increased costs, attention will be applied to increasing alternative revenue streams, with a focus on non-aeronautical – or commercial activities. Key elements of this include the plan to introduce Arrivals Duty Free and the development of plans for the commercial use of non-operational land. However, it is likely that the latter will take time to achieve full potential and generate the significant increases in income required by the Airport. This creates continued financial challenges for the Airport, because as stated earlier, costs increases are occurring now and are ongoing.
The above activities will be undertaken within the context of the Jersey Airport Business Plan submitted to the Treasury in January 2008 and which was subsequently adopted.
The Airport is also currently in negotiation with the French & UK Governments on the Channel Island Control Zone Financial protocol, for the review period 2009-2011. A key element of this negotiation is to secure an appropriate funding contribution from the French & UK governments towards the capital cost of building and equipping the new Air Traffic Control Centre at the Airport. As these negotiations are not concluded at this time no provision for changes to the existing income has been included in the 2009 Budget.
Capital Programme
Jersey Airport, given the ongoing financial challenges it faces, regularly reviews the adequacy, timing and cost levels of its proposed capital investment programme. The following areas are of particular note. Following the recent appointments of a new Airport Operations Director and Manager, Air Traffic Services (on secondment from National Air Traffic Services (NATS)) and the appointment of a new Manager, Air Traffic Engineering, a number of changes to the programme are planned which will generate overall savings whilst meeting the needs of the airport more effectively. This change reflects a key element of the Business Plan which is to undertake a fundamental review of the Air Traffic and associated electronic engineering support. Key aims of the review are:-
• to ensure that the Airport achieves the necessary certification as an "Air Navigation Service Provider".
• that the move to the new ATC Centre is achieved safely and with no operational risk.
• that it should have the right equipment procured in the optimum way,
• that maintenance of equipment is appropriately and cost effectively maintained
• that staffing levels are appropriate and cost effective
The work on this review and re-structuring is complex and ongoing. An early outcome of the review is an opportunity to secure significant overall financial savings by equipping the ATC centre with new equipment rather than migrating equipment as previously planned. This will save £4.12 million over the period to 2012 and can be achieved by delaying certain equipment purchases already approved and bringing forward others. This is reflected in the request for £2,250,000 in the 2009 Capital Programme. If approved, this will allow a sum of £6,372,000 to be removed from the previously planned capital programme between 2009 and 2012. As identified above, the intention is that a significant element of the cost of the equipment will funded by the French & UK governments through the Channel Islands Control Zone agreement.
At the time of compiling the Budget the Airport is considering an outline proposal from its retail and catering business partners for a major upgrade and improvement of the current facilities. This is larger and more radical proposal than originally proposed and follows the opportunities created by the airside/landside changes in 2007. The new proposals offer significant improvements for the passenger and improved commercial income for the Airport. This proposal is likely to require the Airport to undertake some landlord's works in order to secure the capital investment of the business partners. The scheme is at an early conceptual stage but the proposed implementation timescales are short. At this stage no figures are available to include in the Budget. The Airport will be undertaking a full business case analysis which will be independently verified. If there is a solid business case to support the proposals then the Airport will seek the necessary funding, from its Trading Fund, through the appropriate capital approval mechanism.

cost and runs from December 2007 to mid 2011. The project will be the subject of a full feasibility study in 2008/9.
Note 4 This proposal is to meet additional identified commercial accommodation needs for airlines and ground handlers, as well as Airfield
Operations and ATC contingency facility. At this stage this is purely a budget estimate. Potentially this project could be combined with the ARFFS/Engineering Building. It will therefore form part of the same feasibilty study/business case.

Economic Development Jersey Harbours
Jersey Harbours
Aim
Jersey Harbours aspires to be recognised for providing modern port and coastguard services with guaranteed long term viability. We do this by:
- Keeping the port open and safe
- Looking after our customers
- Making enough money and contributing to the economy
Financial Implications 2009 to 2011
Jersey Harbours faces a number of fundamental challenges and opportunities over the coming years including:
Challenges
• Salary increases negotiated through central pay awards remain unrelated to Policy constraints on our ability to increase revenue;
• Significant infrastructure costs and a need for substantial investment in key operational assets;
• Cashflow management, to ensure long term self sufficiency;
• The continued aim for greater productivity to be achieved;
• Coastguard obligations and other heritage and community funding, including the States of Jersey debt';
• No real' increase in key income streams;
Opportunities
• Opportunities to increase and add value to revenue streams;
• Revenue expenditure savings, especially through our TTS Service Level Agreement;
• East of Albert Master development and planning programme.
As indicated above, a number of key operational assets have reached the end of their useful life and no longer comply with best practice or health and safety requirements. 2008 saw the purchase of a new Harbours Crane, and other assets including linkspans and walkways will also need to be replaced within a relatively condensed period, although some projects are being deferred on the basis of uncertainty regarding East of Albert project.
Furthermore, certain Harbours infrastructure will require refurbishment (including the Elizabeth Terminal) in the short/medium term. Harbours also face the challenges presented by the refurbishment/maintenance costs of non-core property, in particular in relation to Outlying Harbours. Consultation is underway with the Property Holdings Department to review the continued allocation of such properties within the Harbours portfolio. Until this review is completed there is some uncertainty as to what property will continue to be administered by Harbours. In order to satisfy capital funding requirements, Harbours will seek to obtain appropriate financing.
Staff costs are forecast to remain a significant proportion of overall operational costs and are expected to continue to be subject to inflation related increases. This, in conjunction with our requirement for continued staff restructuring, causes the single most significant cost increase, along with Utilities (Electricity and fuel) and Port Security.
The management and operation of the Coastguard under the umbrella of Jersey Harbours remains a fundamental obligation, however a significant element of this role is governmental and does not constitute a core function of a commercial' Jersey Harbours. Whilst the logic of continuing the management of the Coastguard under the umbrella of Jersey Harbours remains, our objective is to define a clear and transparent funding policy for 2009.This transparency will extend to policies for other cost areas such as Port Security, Navigational Light Dues', Pilotage, Conservancy and other Harbour charges for facilities and services in 2009.
Harbours also continue to bear the cost of a capital return of almost £1 million in 2009. The most significant element of this relates to the Elizabeth Marina which is due to be repaid by 2011.
Increases in key income streams will continue to be capped in accordance with States of Jersey policy at 2.5%, representing a reduction in real' terms. Our key income budgets have been prudently restated at 2007 activity levels.
The continued adherence to this Policy will undermine our ability to meet our aim for self sustainability, with the resultant divergence between annual operating income and expenditure amounting to c£0.75M over the last five years. Implementation will be reviewed for our 2010 budget. In conjunction with opportunities identified as a result of a business review conducted this year, capital items of expenditure have and will be delayed or reviewed where possible.
Further scope remains to grow business and revenue through both Marine Leisure, as reflected in our capital programme, and the development of our Port Estate as we actively seek to work in partnership with Property Holdings Department and WEB to deliver on new opportunities.
The East of Albert Master planning programme, in which Harbours is a partner, will prompt potentially significant developments in and around the harbour influencing Port Operations and Marine Leisure business in the next 20 years. The key objective will be a positive impact on Jersey's economy.

Jersey Car Parking
AIM:
The aim of Jersey Car Parking is to:
provide and manage public parking facilities in accordance with the Island's needs.
FINANCIAL COMMENTARY
Financial Implications 2009 – 2011
The draft Integrated Transport and Travel Plan (ITTP) incorporates a number of initiatives that will impact on the Jersey Car Parking Fund including new car parks and an automated charging mechanism which will facilitate differential charging. Discounts for low emission vehicles have already been introduced and it would be expected that this will increase.
The creation of a Town Park requires Gas Place car park to be replaced and feasibility is underway to construct a new multi storey on the Ann Court site which would also provide a replacement for Minden Place, which is nearing the end of its useful life. The 25 year Financial Model is nearing completion and the different capital requirements will be fed in to determine how all projects can be funded, whether by means of loans or raising car park charges or, most likely, a combination of the two.
The capital programme 2009 -11 shows expenditure on Ann Court to the extent that it can be funded internally. The total cost is currently estimated at about £18 million but this is still subject to feasibility and discussion on the capacity and effect on the surrounding highways. The automated charging mechanism is estimated at £1.5 million in 2010 and a possible extra deck on Snow Hill is being investigated for 2011.
Once the ITTP has been approved and developed into the Action Plan, a revised capital programme will be proposed and incorporated within an updated 25 year financial plan to assess the funding implications.

Key project areas
The delivery of business benefit through IS enabled projects is led on a departmental basis and is the accountability of the Project Executive. The focus in the IS Corporate projects team is to ensure projects and programmes are delivered to high standards. Corporate project team resources are allocated only to key corporate projects and to ensuring the good governance and quality control of corporate and departmental projects. Key project areas are:
Integrated Health Care Records
The Integrated Care Record ("ICR") Programme is a central plank of the New Directions Health Care Strategy and is an ambitious programme to replace all current systems and patient databases with an integrated set of applications that share the same patient data. The sheer scale and complexity of this programme introduces a high level of risk and all IS enabled projects within the programme will require good governance to ensure that they are delivered with the appropriate quality controls. IS and Health will work in partnership to ensure the effective delivery of the programme and the technical solution.
Web development strategy
The States of Jersey vision for public services, that the customer is at the heart of what we do, requires services be more customer-focused, streamlined, accessible and efficient. Delivery of information and services over the Internet is a key element of that vision and the Organisation Development Board has agreed a Web strategy for achieving it. Web-based delivery offers very significant benefits in terms of improving the quality and accessibility of customer services and information, but also drives down the cost per transaction to an extent which could save the States several million pounds per annum.
However, the States of Jersey internet site, when measured alongside other comparable sites, falls amongst the lowest 20% of UK local authority websites, and is behind those of Guernsey, Malta and Singapore.
Redesign and development of the States Internet and Intranet to deliver excellent customer services, together with the replacement of the underlying technologies, will be a key programme for 2008 and 2009, requiring significant IS resources and effective programme management and governance. This will be achieved through setting up a web programme team to deliver the programme, with resources for the ongoing management of the web, as well as an appropriate programme organisation structure.
This programme brings together other key areas for the IS Department. Services to be delivered online will require business processes to be reviewed to ensure that they are both customer focused and streamlined. IS resources will play a key role in facilitating business process improvement across the organisation and will ensure that processes are optimised and consistent.
In addition, successful delivery of the web programme requires the States to review and streamline the way that data is held and used within the organisation by ensuring that, while individual departments have responsibility for collecting data and information and holding it securely, it is made available under strict conditions to other departments where appropriate. A programme of work to identify and map key data, information and applications will be delivered.
Migration Control system
In June 2005, the States approved new mechanisms and policies to monitor and regulate migration in a fair and transparent manner. This project will bring together disparate processes and systems to enable licenses to be issued to businesses defining the number of people they can employ, and linking this to the ability of those employees to access local housing. By controlling access to employment and housing – and by recording accurately the details of all residents on a Population Register – migration can be regulated and accurate population statistics maintained to plan future services.
This project will develop and implement applications required to deliver the migration legislation, policies and procedures. A Population Register based on the current Social Security database will be developed as part of the Migration Control system, enabling the employment and housing status of individuals to be monitored in order to allow a balance between economic growth and demand on the Island's future resources.
Data Centre
Data centres represent key resources for the States of Jersey and this project addresses both the short term and longer term requirements for safe and secure environments to house the infrastructure upon which all States information and systems are held.
In addition to refurbishing the current centre at Cyril Le Marquand House, a new facility will be identified in conjunction with Property Holdings and developed to ensure that the States has two high quality but geographically separate facilities.

Department's Submission:
By supporting P198/2002, the States agreed to meet the cost of the Airport below ground' works from General Revenues. The works are front loaded' with a requirement to make available around £40 million to complete runway and apron repairs.
In view of the States commitment and the urgent nature of the works, it is proposed that the allocation of £2,841,000 that commenced in 2006 be increased to £5 million per annum for the period 2009 - 2013, when the obligation to fund below ground' works from General Revenues will have been met.

Department's Submission:
Health ICT Systems: Funding totalling £12 million has been provided from 2007 - 2010 to meet the lowest estimated cost of replacement Health IT systems.
The company currently providing Health's ICT systems is leaving the market place. As this item is of such value and significance to Health's business it has been shown separately from the Corporate ICT funding stream, but will need to conform to all Corporate ICT protocols and requirements.

Department's Submission:
The Housing Department's property plan (P6/2007), which was approved in 2007, proposed the use of proceeds from the sale of a number of States rental homes, in addition to funding from the capital programme, to fund a ten year refurbishment plan and the acquisition of around 400 life-long homes to meet the needs of the ageing population. The table below provides a forecast of the various expenditure and funding flows over the next five years.
The proposed capital allocation provides the balance of funding, a further £17.75 million, in the period 2009 to 2013.

Department's Submission:
The Infrastructure allocation will comprise of the following, to include continued provision for 2013: Foul Sewer Reconstruction
Reconstruction work is required to maintain the existing sewerage network in sound working order and prevent deterioration of this fundamental Island asset. Essential work is undertaken to maintain the structural and hydraulic integrity of the sewerage system. The Island will benefit from reduced risk of sewer collapse. There is no provision for sewer extension in this reduced budget allocation.
Sea Defence Strategy
The Island's sea defences are integral to the safe maintenance of the Island's infrastructure and protect and maintain large areas of public and private property. As such, they should be considered a priority in terms of short and long term maintenance if ultimate failure or collapse is to be avoided in the future.
Highways Infrastructure
Funds will be allocated to continue the implementation of the results of the pavement management system, in particular, strengthening and reconstruction of existing highways and supporting structures and installation of new road drainage where appropriate.
Bellozanne Odour Control
The sewage treatment process commences at First Tower where there is a large underground sewage pumping station that receives sewage from the east of the Island, Town Centre and west of the Island from where it is pumped under pressure to Bellozanne Valley Treatment Works. The incoming sewage then undergoes a series of screening and settlement in open tanks, the majority of which have the ability to liberate odour.
The first phase of establishing the scale of a problem will be to undertake an odour survey which will require specialist contractors to be brought in from the UK. Following assessment, a preliminary engineering appraisal will then have to be carried out to establish the scale of the enclosure required and whether it will merely consist of covers on top of a tank or whether a full building structure has to be constructed to enclose the entire facility.
The final and complex stage will be to undertake a full engineering and hazard assessment of each area to determine whether or not it has to be classified as a hazardous zone. It is only at this time that it will be possible to accurately determine the true financial cost of providing enclosures to the Works. Following this level of detail, the final stage will be then to design a large odour control unit with associated ducting to extract all foul air from within the enclosures through the odour control unit and then exhaust to atmosphere.

Department's Submission:
Additional funding to meet the increasing cost of maintaining the existing plant in operational order until its replacement is commissioned in 2011.
Replacement Energy from Waste Plant (EfW)
The States have approved the proposed replacement for the Bellozanne Incinerator and the recommended funding route. P73/2008 (T&R) provided for a release of funds of £102.81 million from the Consolidated Fund to the Transport and Technical Services Department in 2008. Consequently, there is no requirement for the States to further approve this allocation within the Plan.
A consequence of funding the proposed replacement EfW Plant from the Consolidated Fund in 2008 is to remove the requirement to provide future allocations, previously set at £7 million per annum, to finance external borrowing. The allocations of £7 million approved in principle for 2010 - 2013 have been deleted from the revised Capital Programme allocation, this having the effect of reducing the call from the Consolidated Fund in these, and subsequent, years.
The proposed allocation of £7 million in 2009 has been retained but converted into an allocation to the States risk element of the Capital Reserve (see below).

| CAPITAL RESERVE - RISK FUND ALLOCATION |
| 2009 |
| £7,000,000 |
|
Department's Submission:
Since August 2006 a total of £3.3 million has been transferred from the Capital Reserve Risk Budget to fund the following expenditure risks that have materialised:
- £518,000 for St Catherine's Breakwater;
- £1.5 million in respect of the 2007 pay award; and
- £1.3 million for emergency works to the existing Bellozanne Incinerator.
As a result of these items, the risk reserve has reduced to an unsustainable level of some £19,000. The allocation of £7 million will restore the budget to a level commensurate with the value of the States' ongoing and proposed capital projects.

Department's Submission:
The J.D. Edwards system is the States of Jersey's Enterprise Resource Planning system, which has been in operation since 2002 and is used by all departments. It covers a wide range of functions, including financial management, asset management and human resource management, which are integral to the efficient administration of the States of Jersey.
Given the importance of the system to the administration of the States of Jersey, it is essential that it is upgraded on a regular basis to ensure that it is fully supported and to reduce the risk of system failure. It is also essential that the system is compatible with other items of the States of Jersey's infrastructure, can be adapted when changes in business processes are required, such as the introduction of G.S.T. and G.A.A.P., as well as being able to integrate with other departmental systems to streamline processes where possible.

Department's Submission:
The Jersey Weather Radar was commissioned in 1991. It forms part of a network of weather radars across the UK and Europe. The Jersey Weather Radar is part of the UK element of the European Weather Radar Network.
The existing Plessey 46C Weather Radar is no longer in production and replacement parts are becoming increasingly difficult to source. The new system is needed to ensure continuing compatibility with UK and French weather radar systems which is essential to maintain aviation safety.
The UK Meteorological Office is proposing to replace the UK element commencing in 2007/8. In order to continue to honour its national and international obligations, Jersey will also need to replace its weather radar in tandem with the UK upgrade. In agreeing to carry out this upgrade, the Jersey Meteorological Department will enter into a contractual obligation with the UK Meteorological Office.

Department's Submission:
The purpose of this refit would be to enable the vessel to continue in service with a low risk of significant operating costs/down time until at least 2019. Under the terms of the Jersey/UK Fisheries Management Agreement and the UK/France agreement concerning fishing in the Bay of Granville, Jersey is obliged to manage fishing effort in the territorial sea. Such management involves the enacting and enforcement of legislation equivalent to EU and UK fisheries regulations and beyond and the conducting of research work to further develop efficient management. Legislation relating to the exclusive rights of Jersey fishermen to access important areas is also enforced. The vessel was purpose built to conduct this role in an efficient manner and the refit is necessary to extend that capability for a further ten years.

The replacement system will require ongoing maintenance and operational support in respect of hardware and software issues. These have been identified and equated with the revenue costs already incurred for the current system. The current costs are already accounted for within Police, Fire and Rescue and Ambulance Services budgets. In addition, the costs to the users – such as the Honorary Police – are also accounted for on a like for like basis with current costs. It is envisaged that the operating costs for the new system will be in the region of £500,000 per annum.
There are no identified manpower implications.

| PERMANENT RE-USE/RECYCLE CENTRE |
| £1,452,000 |
|
Anticipated Year of Commencement: 2010
Department's Submission:
The existing Bellozanne site provides a facility for both commercial and domestic vehicles delivering bulky waste. Opening hours are extended into the weekends for domestic users. Mixing large commercial vehicles with private cars on a busy site (often over 500 vehicle movements per day) is not ideal, and the site layout allows few opportunities for segregating different types of waste.
A new permanent Reuse and Recycling Centre, purpose-built for safe and convenient public access and providing receptacles for a range of separate materials, was approved by the States in the Waste Strategy in July 2005. Model sites exist in other countries, with good signage and vehicular access and features such as a reuse shed, where working appliances and other items can be deposited for others to put back into service if they choose.
The proposed operation would include bulking and baling facilities for the efficient storage of recyclables destined for off-Island re-processors. Materials collected from the bring bank system would also be managed here. Ideally this facility would be located near the main port which would allow larger vehicles to be used for exporting the recycled materials, thus maximising efficiency.

|
Anticipated Year of Commencement: 2011
Department's Submission:
Jersey generates over 200,000 tonnes of inert waste is each year. To provide a smooth transition from the La Collette phase 2 land reclamation site to a new facility, the new facility must be operational by 2015 (based on waste arisings from 2000). The existing La Collette II site retaining wall and associated works cost £26 million to construct over a 30 month period from 1993 to 1996.
The Island needs a facility to safely dispose of inert waste; this has traditionally involved marine land reclamation. The proposed funding is to undertake a feasibility assessment to determine the most appropriate location for the new facility, produce fully costed options and initiate the associated planning and design works.

Department's Submission:
The existing secondary treatment works was upgraded in 1997 with a new technology to minimise space and reduce cost. This has been a very difficult plant to operate and has not provided the degree of reliability required for the treatment of the Island's sewage.
As many parts of the plant will require replacement by 2012 it is planned to replace the technology with a more traditional system that has proven capabilities. The project will require the construction of further treatment tanks at Bellozanne and the introduction of filtration systems to remove the nitrates from the effluent.

Anticipated Year of Commencement: 2011
Department's Submission:
The current Oncology facility, situated in the existing outpatient area, is rapidly becoming too small for current and projected activity. Since its opening on 12 October 1995, the activity in the Oncology Unit (covering the treatment of both solid tumours and blood borne cancers) has risen over the last five or so years by approximately 8.5% per year. In addition, approximately 180 new cases are being referred each year.
The proposed extra floor over the existing Maternity Ward linked to Plemont Ward will help provide an oncology service for both inpatients and outpatients in an appropriate setting and meet conservative activity forecasts. The cost of providing alternative off island treatment is prohibitive to a significant extent and unnecessarily distressing and inconvenient for local patients.

Corporate project team resources are allocated only to key corporate projects and to ensuring the good governance and quality control of corporate and departmental projects. Key project areas are:
Integrated Health Care Records
The Integrated Care Record ("ICR") Programme is a central plank of the New Directions Health Care Strategy and is an ambitious programme to replace all current systems and patient databases with an integrated set of applications that share the same patient data. The sheer scale and complexity of this programme introduces a high level of risk and all IS enabled projects within the programme will require good governance to ensure that they are delivered with the appropriate quality controls. IS and Health will work in partnership to ensure the effective delivery of the programme and the technical solution.
Web development strategy
The States of Jersey vision for public services, that the customer is at the heart of what we do, requires services be more customer-focused, streamlined, accessible and efficient. Delivery of information and services over the Internet is a key element of that vision and the Organisation Development Board has agreed a Web strategy for achieving it. Web-based delivery offers very significant benefits in terms of improving the quality and accessibility of customer services and information, but also drives down the cost per transaction to an extent which could save the States several million pounds per annum.
However, the States of Jersey internet site, when measured alongside other comparable sites, falls amongst the lowest 20% of UK local authority websites, and is behind those of Guernsey, Malta and Singapore.
Redesign and development of the States Internet and Intranet to deliver excellent customer services, together with the replacement of the underlying technologies, will be a key programme for 2008 and 2009, requiring significant IS resources and effective programme management and governance. This will be achieved through setting up a web programme team to deliver the programme, with resources for the ongoing management of the web, as well as an appropriate programme organisation structure.
This programme brings together other key areas for the IS Department. Services to be delivered online will require business processes to be reviewed to ensure that they are both customer focused and streamlined. IS resources will play a key role in facilitating business process improvement across the organisation and will ensure that processes are optimised and consistent.
In addition, successful delivery of the web programme requires the States to review and streamline the way that data is held and used within the organisation by ensuring that, while individual departments have responsibility for collecting data and information and holding it securely, it is made available under strict conditions to other departments where appropriate. A programme of work to identify and map key data, information and applications will be delivered.
Migration Control system
In June 2005, the States approved new mechanisms and policies to monitor and regulate migration in a fair and transparent manner. This project will bring together disparate processes and systems to enable licenses to be issued to businesses defining the number of people they can employ, and linking this to the ability of those employees to access local housing. By controlling access to employment and housing – and by recording accurately the details of all residents on a Population Register – migration can be regulated and accurate population statistics maintained to plan future services.
This project will develop and implement applications required to deliver the migration legislation, policies and procedures. A Population Register based on the current Social Security database will be developed as part of the Migration Control system, enabling the employment and housing status of individuals to be monitored in order to allow a balance between economic growth and demand on the Island's future resources.
Data Centre
Data centres represent key resources for the States of Jersey and this project addresses both the short term and longer term requirements for safe and secure environments to house the infrastructure upon which all States information and systems are held.
In addition to refurbishing the current centre at Cyril Le Marquand House, a new facility will be identified in conjunction with Property Holdings and developed to ensure that the States has two high quality but geographically separate facilities.
Property
Property
From 1 January 2006, the Property Holdings department took over responsibility for the States land and property other than Social Housing and that managed by the States Trading Operations. This portfolio represents a significant investment for the Island and must be managed efficiently and effectively.

Legislation Programme
Legislation Programme
The legislation programme is a significant part of the annual consideration of the States resources. It ensures that demands on the law drafting resource are properly prioritised and is an aide to predicting and planning for the impact of future legislation on the financial and manpower resources of the States.
The main Annual Business Plan report contains a summary of the process and the proposed programme for 2009 for approval.
Included in this Annex are the following tables for information:
• 2009 Proposed Legislation Programme - Detail;
• Work in progress as at 15 May 2008;
• Legislation programme 2006-2008 matters on which instructions are awaited as at 15 May 2008;
• Summary of Work Completed 16 June 2007 to 15 May 2008;
• Indication of Legislation likely to be bid for in 2010/2011.

IT investment will be required. Largest costs expected to arise in 2010+. It is unlikely that costs can be met from existing budgets. No additional funding obtained as yet. | Unknown: the potential exists for an increase in intelligence gathering which may result in extra resources being required | Commitment 3, in particular, sections 3.2, 3.3 and 3.4 |
2 | HA | Protection of children and vulnerable adults - new Law to ensure that people working with them are adequately checked and that safeguarding information remains accessible once the UK independent safeguarding authority scheme begins to be rolled out in autumn 2008 | 25 | Estimated £250,000; a vetting fee will be imposed | Likely increased manpower implications (unspecified) | Commitment 3, promotion of a safe, just and equitable society |
8 | P&E | Community Provisions - implementation of EU Regulations governing trade in bovine embryos and ova | 10 | No additional costs | - | How does the proposed legislation link to key objectives in the strategic plan. It underpins 1.2 and 4.1 by ensuring a sustainable and productive dairy industry. |
9 | P&E | Legislation for the protection of archaeological artefacts | 20 | No additional costs |
| It will contribute towards the objectives of: 4.5: by ensuring that the Island's heritage is sympathetically protected and managed; 5.2: by ensuring that Jersey is adhering to the international conventions which apply to it. (i.e European Convention on the Protection of the Archaeological Heritage (1992) extended to Jersey in 2000) |

30 | ED | Sea Fisheries Regulations - amendments in line with fisheries management agreement | 25 | There are unlikely to be significant resource implications, although the full content of the EU revised regulations has not yet been published. Enforcement of the new measures will most likely be achievable within existing resources. | no | Any measures likely to be introduced will have the following positive effects: Jersey will be complying with international treaty obligations. Jersey will be seen externally to be playing a full part in the safeguarding of marine resources at both local and European level. Good management of fisheries resources will retain the ability of the local fishing industry to remain viable, thus securing employment of both fishermen and shore based support staff. The majority of the catch is exported bringing revenue to the Island. The marine environment will be protected for the long term enjoyment of all who benefit from it. The EU revision is intended to simplify regulations so that they are more easily understood by fishermen and can be more efficiently enforced. |
31 | ED | Unclaimed Assets | 20 | No measurable costs are anticipated. | There will be no manpower consequences. | Clearly providing certainty in the treatment of unclaimed assets and using such assets for the benefit of the Island will link to a number of key objectives. For example, they could assist in creating an environment where everyone has the opportunity to enjoy a good quality of life. |
32 | ED | Trusts Law amendments | 25 | No measurable implementation cost. | No effect on manpower | As a key part of the finance industry the proposed amendments directly links to objective 1.8 which is involves taking measure to ensure a flourishing finance industry with an international reputation for integrity. In particular, there is a risk, that if (i) is not introduced, that the reputation of Jersey's finance industry will be damaged as well as the risk that a failure to keep the Trusts Law up-to-date will compromise the industry's ability to flourish. |
33 | ED | Charities - definition | 10 | No measurable cost. | No effect on manpower. | This will link to objective 1.8 in assisting the flourishing of the finance sector with an international reputation for integrity by assisting the trusts industry in marketing its product. In addition greater clarity in this area has the potential to encourage charitable giving with benefits to Jersey's society and environment across the strategic plan. |
34 | ED | Companies Law - amendments | 40 | No measurable cost. | No effect on manpower. | The need for revisions link into many of the key objectives including objective 1.2, sustained economic growth – the success of the finance industry is clearly crucial to this goal and having an up-to- date Companies Law is of great importance in allowing the finance industry to flourish, and ensuring that Jersey remains a world class business centre (objective 1.6). |
36 | ED | Security Interests phase 2 - extension to tangibles | 40 | No measurable cost. | no effect on manpower. | This change is essential to make the economy is more competitive objective 1.7 as at present it is impossible to take adequate security over some of these types of assets. A modern security interests law is vital to ensuring that the finance industry, and in particular the banking industry remains competitive. |

37 | ED | Oversight of E Money providers | 10 | There should be no costs to the States of implementing the legislation beyond the resources to prepare drafts and, if necessary, for their review by the Law Officers. | Implementation of the legislation will have no effect on States' manpower. | It will assist the promotion, diversification and development of the financial services industry and help to protect the Island's international reputation for integrity (Objective 1.8 of the Strategy Plan). |
39 | ED | x4 Financial services regulatory Laws - post-IMF visit changes | 20 | Costs are unknown at this time as we do not know what, if anything, will need to be addressed. It is thought unlikely that there will be any costs to the States of implementing the legislation other than the resources to prepare drafts and for their review by the Law Officers. | Again unknown, but implementation of the legislation is not expected to have any effect on States' manpower. | The maintenance and development of a flourishing industry with an international reputation for integrity (objective 1.8 in the 2008 Strategic Plan) is heavily dependent upon a prompt response to any issues that may be raised by the IMF. |
40 | ED | Trademarks Law - update | 30 | The issue of costs has not been examined but it is likely that there would be an additional cost to running a deposit registry. There is scope for the recovery of costs through the registration system to an extent. EDD may be able to contain additional costs within its existing budget but this would need further consideration. | This has not been considered but it is anticipated that the manpower could be contained within existing allocations. Guernsey runs a deposit registry with two staff at present and there are potential options to locate this in Jersey within the Jersey Financial Services Commission or to expand the role of the current IP Registry in the Judicial Greffe. This would need further consideration. | Increased opportunities would arise for new businesses to contribute to aim 1.2 Increased Productivity and 1.5 the Economy is Diversified and Developed. Objective 5.2 related to the development of Jersey's international profile would also be supported. |
41 | ED | Financial services- Private trust company exemption | 8 | Implementation of the legislation will have no effect on States' manpower. | Implementation of the legislation will have no effect on costs to the public. | It will assist the promotion, diversification and development of the financial services industry, which is one of the indicators of Objective 1.8 of the 2008 Strategic Plan. |
42 | ED | Registered Designs Law - update | 30 | The issue of costs has not been examined but it is likely that there would be an additional cost to running a primary registry. There is scope for the recovery of costs through the registration system to an extent. EDD may be able to contain additional costs within its existing budget but this would need further consideration. | This has not been considered but it is possible that the manpower could be contained within existing allocations. The current registry is operated by the Judicial Greffe. This would need further consideration. | Increased opportunities would arise for new businesses to contribute to aim 1.2 Increased Productivity and 1.5 the Economy is Diversified and Developed. Objective 5.2 related to the development of Jersey's international profile would also be supported. |

43 | ED | Provision to facilitate entry into Single European Payments Area | 10 | There should be no costs to the States of implementing the legislation beyond the resources to prepare drafts and for their review by the Law Officers. | Implementation of the legislation will have no effect on States' manpower. | Without equivalent legislation, bank deposits and overall customer transactions are likely to decrease, which is contrary to objective 1.8 in the 2008 Strategic Plan. |
44 | ED | Patents Law - update | 30 | The issue of costs has not been examined but it is likely that there would be an additional cost to running a primary registry. There is scope for the recovery of costs through the registration system to an extent. EDD may be able to contain additional costs within its existing budget but this would need further consideration. | This has not been considered but it is possible that the manpower could be contained within existing allocations. The current registry is operated by the Judicial Greffe. This would need further consideration. | Increased opportunities would arise for new businesses to contribute to aim 1.2 Increased Productivity and 1.5 the Economy is Diversified and Developed. Objective 5.2 related to the development of Jersey's international profile would also be supported. |
46 | ED | Control of Borrowing repeal or update | 20 | Implementation of the legislation will have no effect on States' manpower. | It is not expected that there will be any additional cost to the public or even the finance industry. | It is a natural adjunct to the continuing development of legislation to assist the promotion, diversification and development of the finance industry (see Objective 1.8 in the Strategic Plan). |
56 | H&SS | Regulation of care - The current legislation regulating health and social care provision is no longer fit for purpose and does not provide an adequate level of protection required by the most vulnerable sections of the population. It is proposed to combine and amend two existing Laws, the Nursing and Residential Homes (Jersey) Law 1995 and the Nursing Agencies (Jersey) Law 1978 to ensure Jersey enjoys high quality health and social care services. | 25 | None required | It is not anticipated that a change in the legislation will place any more demands on manpower, as other than the four care agencies, there is no intention to increase the number and type of premises or services covered by the legislation. | Commitment 3, promotion of a safe, just and equitable society |
