QUESTION TO BE ASKED OF THE PRESIDENT OF THE ENVIRONMENT AND PUBLIC SERVICES COMMITTEE ON TUESDAY 11th MAY 2004, BY THE DEPUTY OF ST. JOHN

Question

Would the President inform members whether any financial settlement was awarded to Pioneer Coaches some years ago when an agreement to provide a hoppa' bus service for St. Helier was withdrawn at late notice, and, if so, the size of the settlement and from where the funds were made available?

Answer

I am advised there was a financial settlement of £15,000 which was paid out of the Public Services Committee's cash limit in 2001.
