WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE CHIEF MINISTER
BY DEPUTY S. PITMAN OF ST. HELIER
ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 3rd NOVEMBER 2009
Question
"Would the Chief Minister inform States Members what qualifications and experience those Ministers he successfully nominated possess for their specific roles?"
Answer
In nominating Ministers, I considered those with proven ability in the States or in previous activities, and leadership either at Ministerial, Assistant Ministerial, States or Parish level or any previous experience as a Committee President or Vice President. Alongside these qualities, I also considered individuals' knowledge, strength of character and drive.
I believe that subsequent events have demonstrated the quality and strengths of the Ministerial team, the appointment of which was ultimately a decision made by a majority of States Members, not just myself.
