WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE CHAIRMAN OF THE EDUCATION AND HOME AFFAIRS SCRUTINY PANEL BY DEPUTY M. TADIER OF ST. BRELADE
ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 18th FEBRUARY 2014
Question
Will the Chairman provide a summary of the anticipated work programme for the remainder of the term, including any current and new reviews and state what policy areas will be a priority for the panel in both departments?
Answer
On 21st January 2014, I was privileged to be appointed as Chairman of the Education and Home Affairs Scrutiny Panel. On 4th February 2014, the Connétable of St Martin was approved by the States to sit on the Panel. We have met twice since then. The First meeting was to deal with the constitution of the Panel, meeting dates and to decide how to move forward. The second was on Thursday 13th February, to receive a briefing on the work programme of the Home Affairs Minister.
The Panel has now arranged a similar briefing from the Minister of Education, Sport and Culture to be held on 24th February.
Careful consideration needs to be given to what is achievable over the remaining time available in this session. Therefore, prior to the next Panel meeting, on 24th February, when our work programme will be decided, it would be premature for me to provide the States with an anticipated work programme for the Scrutiny Panel for the remainder of the term.
