WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE MINISTER FOR HOME AFFAIRS BY DEPUTY T.M. PITMAN OF ST. HELIER

ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 6th JULY 2010

Question

"Under questioning about the lengthy suspension process of the Chief Officer of the States of Jersey Police on the 22nd June 2010, the Minister asked for patience, advising Members that all would be revealed in July, will the Minister now give assurances that when referring to July he meant that information, including access to the so called 'Metropolitan Police Interim Report' and information as to whether the former Chief Minister and current States Chief Executive Officer received briefings on other States Members as a consequence of 'Operation Blast', will be provided to members before, or during the last States sitting prior to the summer recess; or will the Minister be seeking to delay the release of such information until the summer recess has begun, thus preventing the opportunity for Members to ask questions?"

Answer

It is very likely that I will provide considerable information to Members of the Assembly prior to 19th July 2010 and will make statements to the Assembly on 19th or 20th July 2010, so that I can be questioned on this area and on other related matters prior to the summer recess. If that occurs, then Members will receive notification of a number of briefings on a number of occasions prior to 19th July 2010.
