WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE MINISTER FOR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT BY THE DEPUTY OF ST. JOHN

ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON MONDAY 6th DECEMBER 2010

Question

Will the Minister confirm what contribution the States are making to his department's budget in respect of the cost of repairs at St. Aubin's Harbour (at a cost of £1.2 million) and also at Gorey Harbour (at additional cost), which are both historic monuments, and if there is none, would he explain why?

Answer

The States have made a contribution of £150,000 to the Jersey Harbours Trading Fund in respect of the St Aubin's project as detailed in MD-TR-2009-0142 dated 2nd September 2009 for £70,000 and MD-TR-2010- 0020 dated 25th January 2010 for £80,000.

The total project budget is £1.602 million further to MD-TR-2010-0163 dated 23rd November 2010 which is to be funded from the Jersey Harbours Trading Fund.

The total project budget for the Gorey Harbour project is £2.966 million scheduled for 2012. This was to be funded by the States as detailed in the States of Jersey Annual Business Plan 2011 (page 38).

As a result of discussions with the Treasury and Resources Department, it is proposed in Part B of the Expenditure Proposals for 2012 and 2013 that central funding is removed.
