WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE CHIEF MINISTER BY DEPUTY M.R. HIGGINS OF ST. HELIER
ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 17th JUNE 2014
Question
Will the Chief Minister set out for members the number of people who have applied for registration cards under the new Control of Housing and Work (Jersey) Law 2012, breaking down the numbers into the nationality and country of origin of all those who have applied during
the period 1st January 2014 to 31st March 2014? Answer
The figures below show all those people applying for registration cards between 1st January 2014 and 31st March 2014. This does not mean they are all new to the Island. People need registration cards when they move house or change jobs. When issuing cards we ask for an applicant's nationality, not country of origin.
The numbers of individuals who have applied for registration cards under the Control of Housing and Work (Jersey) Law 2012 between 1st January 2014 and 31st March 2014 inclusive, reported by nationality, are as follows:-
