WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE MINISTER FOR TRANSPORT AND TECHNICAL SERVICES BY DEPUTY G.C.L. BAUDAINS OF ST. CLEMENT

ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 6th MARCH 2012

Question

"Further to the Minister's response to part 1(v) of my written question of 21st February 2012 relating to the Energy from Waste plant, would he advise whether Guernsey politicians were advised during their discussions with his Department regarding the potential exportation of their waste, that their Jersey counterparts had yet to determine whether they would be willing to accept their waste and, if not, why not?"

Answer

The Minister can confirm that during the meeting on the 10th January 2012 the politicians visiting from Guernsey were informed that the importation of waste into Jersey for treatment in the Island's Energy from Waste plant will not proceed until the principle of waste importation has been discussed and approved by the States of Jersey Assembly. This is in accordance with P17/2010 Amd.
