WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE MINISTER FOR TRANSPORT AND TECHNICAL SERVICES BY DEPUTY R.G. LE HÉRISSIER OF ST. SAVIOUR

ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 9th OCTOBER 2007

Question

Has the Minister received the legal advice (Recommendation 6 of Committee of Inquiry into Tender Process and Award of Bus Services Contract, R.C.58/2005) and, if so, what action has been taken?

Answer

Legal advice was received in January 2007 and since that date discussions have been ongoing with Connex. It would be inappropriate at this stage to divulge the nature of these discussions as they have not yet been completed. Any agreement resulting from these discussions will be independently reviewed by the Comptroller and Auditor General as part of his scheduled audit of the current bus contract due to be undertaken within the next few months.
