WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE MINISTER FOR SOCIAL SECURITY BY DEPUTY G.P. SOUTHERN OF ST. HELIER
ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 12th OCTOBER 2010
Question
Given that P.153/2009, approved by the Assembly on 18th November 2009, requested the Minister to report back as a matter of urgency, and in any case no later than September 2010, with the results of the research and recommendations relating to the future funding of Social Security supplementation, will the Minister inform members why his report is late and state when it will be delivered?
Answer
As I stated in the States Assembly during the last sitting, the future funding of supplementation is linked to the Fiscal Strategy Review. My department is working closely with Treasury and Resources and is fully involved in the budget proposals which will be lodged by 26th October 2010. In addition, I will be publishing shortly thereafter, a separate report setting out the challenges facing Social Security funding over the next few years. This report will include a response to P.153/2009.
