WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE MINISTER FOR HEALTH AND SOCIAL SERVICES BY THE DEPUTY OF ST. JOHN
ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 15th MARCH 2011
Question
Can members be advised if there are any additional costs associated with the Hospital Managing Director's 2 year contract and, if so provide a breakdown of the following –
- accommodation costs- would the Minister advise whether an application has been made for a j' category housing consent, outline hotel accommodation costs if applicable and indicate whether there is an allowance for food and beverages weekly;
- Transport costs on Island - would the Minister advise whether a car is supplied and, if so, give details and if the individual commutes by taxi or bus what the weekly cost of this is to the taxpayer;
- Transport costs off Island - would the Minister advise whether flights or ferry crossings to the United Kingdom are funded, what is their frequency and who meets this cost?
Answer
In accordance with the information previously distributed to States members, I can again confirm that there are no additional costs associated with the Hospital Managing Director's 2-year contract. Specifically, no accommodation costs, no subsistence costs and no transport costs. Furthermore, as this is a contract for services, there are no pension costs, no sick pay and no holiday pay.
HSSD applied for J Cat housing consent for the post in September 2010. Whilst this consent was granted it is not required by the current Managing Director.
