WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE CHIEF MINISTER BY DEPUTY M.R. HIGGINS OF ST. HELIER
ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 28th APRIL 2015
Question
Will the Chief Minister advise members how many people applied for registration cards under the Control of Housing and Work (Jersey) Law 2012 during the period 1st January 2015 to 31st March 2015, breaking down the numbers into the nationality and country of origin of applicants?
Answer
The figures below show all those people applying for registration cards under the Control of Housing and Work (Jersey) Law 2012 during the requested time periods.
Applying for a registration card does not mean people are new to the Island, as everyone needs a registration card when moving house or changing jobs.
When issuing cards we ask for an applicant's nationality, not country of origin.
