WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE MINISTER FOR HEALTH AND SOCIAL SERVICES BY DEPUTY M.R. HIGGINS OF ST. HELIER
ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 19th MARCH 2013
Question
Further to the Minister's responses to a written question on 19th February 2013 and to written and oral questions on 5th March 2013, would the Minister set out all the information the Department possesses reading blood screening of residents close to the Bellozanne facility and, if not, why not?
Answer
HSSD has provided all the information that it holds on file in relation to the screening of residents close to Bellozanne. This information was provided in the answers to question 7429 and 7494.
The screening undertaken in 2006 and 2007 was at the instigation of the then Minister for Health, and as such was not managed by HSSD's Public Health Department as would be the norm for public health screening. As a result, detailed records of the screening process are not available other than blood test result for the 3 residents who chose to participate. These results show no anomalies.
