WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE CHAIRMAN OF THE STATES EMPLOYMENT BOARD

BY DEPUTY M.R. HIGGINS OF ST. HELIER

ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 23rd OCTOBER 2018

Question

Will the Chairman advise members whether any former or existing States employees named in the report of the Independent Jersey Care Inquiry (R.59/2018), who were accused by either survivors or other members of staff of abusing children physically, sexually or emotionally, were subject to a disciplinary process or criminal trial; and will she state whether any of these people are still employed by the States?

Answer

A similar question WQ.14/2018 was asked in January 2018 which is identified for reference.

No disciplinary process has been applied to any existing member of staff in respect of the report of the Independent Jersey Care Enquiry. There are no criminal or pending prosecutions about existing or former employees

Two employees who were named in the Inquiry report remain employed by the States of Jersey.
