WQ.148/2019

WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE MINISTER FOR TREASURY AND RESOURCES BY THE CONNÉTABLE OF ST. HELIER

ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 12th MARCH 2019

Question

Would the Minister explain how the proposed changes to Liberation Square and the Weighbridge are to be funded?

Answer

The Connétable will remember that as part of the Budget 2019 Liberation 75 works was to be funded utilising unspent capital sums. There was sufficient budget returned as part of this process to fund the potential extra costs of this scheme.

The Connetéble will also be aware that an alternative funding mechanism has also been identified, through an in-specie dividend from SoJDC. The Board of SoJDC are in agreement to this proposal and are working on the assumption of costs up to £3 million.
