2.5 Deputy P.V.F. Le Claire of the Minister for Transport and Technical Services regarding the publication of the Hazard Review Group Phase 2 report on La Collette Fuel Depot and Jersey Gas Facility:
On 15th January 2008 the Minister stated that the Hazard Review Group signed-off the phase 2 report on La Collette Fuel Depot and Jersey Gas Facility on 14th December 2007, that this report was due to be presented to the Council of Ministers on 24th January 2008 and, subject to approval, would be made public immediately after. Would the Minister update Members on whether or not this has occurred?
Deputy G.W.J. de Faye of St. Helier (The Minister for Transport and Technical Services):
The report referred to by the Deputy "Land Use Planning Risk Assessment for La Collette Fuel Depot and Jersey Gas Facility" was considered and approved at the Council of Ministers meeting on 24th January 2008. This report was subsequently considered by the Minister for Planning and Environment on 3rd March 2008 and adopted as a supplementary planning guidance note. It was certainly my intention that the document would be available, but regrettably records from the Planning Department and the States Greffe indicate that when the Minister for Planning and Environment signed the Ministerial Decision on this matter the decision summary inadvertently indicated the accompanying report was to be classified as exempt. For this reason the report was not published alongside the Ministerial Decision itself when this was uploaded by the States Greffe on to the States official website in early March. The Minister has now indicated that the report
should have been published at the time and I understand that steps are being taken to upload it
alongside the decision summary.
2.5.1 Deputy P.V.F. Le Claire:
I wonder if the Minister would also be so kind as to provide members of the Environment Scrutiny Panel - and perhaps any other Members who wish a copy - with a hard copy of that report, please, because we have been waiting to see the contents.
Deputy G.W.J. de Faye:
This is not really a matter for me, but I am sure that the Deputy and the Environment Scrutiny Panel may avail themselves of hard copy either from the Planning Department or the States Greffe.
