WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE MINISTER FOR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT BY DEPUTY G.C.L. BAUDAINS OF ST. CLEMENT
ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 1st APRIL 2008
Question
Would the Minister advise whether Jersey Harbours have any plans to relocate the fuel farm and, if so, in what timescale?
Answer
The Economic Development Department, Jersey Harbours and the Waterfront Enterprise Board (WEB) are, as part of a strategic planning process, undertaking a master planning exercise for the East of Albert area that includes the site of the current fuel farm and La Collette. A key component of the process is the possibility of relocating the existing commercial port to La Collette to allow commercial and residential development in the current operational port area to satisfy future demand for quality residential and commercial space in St Helier. As part of the process to asses the viability and implications of port relocation, the future location of the fuel farm is being considered. The timescale for relocation, which would be subject to health and safety, environmental and commercial considerations has yet to be determined.
