WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE MINISTER FOR TREASURY AND RESOURCES BY THE DEPUTY OF ST. JOHN
ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 28th APRIL 2009
Question
Would the Minister inform the Assembly of the total monies, if any, owed by Harcourt to States departments as of 25th March 2009, broken down by departments, also money owed to States owned companies such as the Waterfront Enterprise Board, giving details of how long the debts have been outstanding?
Would the Minister outline the States credit policy to the Assembly? Answer
Monies owed by Harcourt to the Transport and Technical Services States amount to £234,000. I am not aware of any other amounts owed to States Departments for goods or services provided by the States.
Harcourt owe the Waterfront Enterprise Board Limited £5,070. Other States owned companies are not owed monies by Harcourt.
The policy for the debts under States administration, excluding Income Tax, Goods and Services Tax and Social Security, is that debts are due within 30 days of the end of the month in which the invoice is raised, i.e. if the invoice was raised in March it would be due on 30th April 2009.
A robust credit control procedure is applied to all debts outstanding beyond their due date. Debts which remain outstanding may ultimately be pursued through legal action.
