WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE MINISTER FOR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT BY THE DEPUTY OF ST. JOHN
ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 12th MAY 2009
Question
Could members be told of the total mileage to date of the fisheries vessel, the Norman Le Brocq; the mileage covered in 2008 and how many hours sea time this equated to in 2008?
Will the Minister undertake to advise members in October 2009 whether the total sea time from 1st May – 30th September 2009 for the Norman Le Brocq has increased or decreased as a result of the introduction of the Sea Fisheries (Licensing of Fishing Boats) (Amendment No.4) (Jersey) Regulations 2009, which it was maintained would have no financial manpower implications (according to P.35/2009, adopted by the States on 29th April 2009)?
Answer
Total mileage for the Norman Le Brocq is 55,778 nautical miles. Mileage in 2008 was 4,100 nautical miles and 427 hours were spent at sea.
The Minister will, of course, be able to advise members in October of sea time accrued by the Norman Le Brocq but Members will understand that any increase or decrease in activity may be due to a combination of factors and circumstances.
