20 Deputy R.J. Ward of St. Helier of the Minister for Treasury and Resources regarding

working with Statistics Jersey (OQ.11/2021):

Further to the adoption of P.94/2019, will the Minister update members on the implementation of the commitments to work with Statistics Jersey on the requirement that all States expenditure be classified in accordance with the United Nations Classification of the Functions of Government system and to ensure that Government documents present and classify financial information in accordance with international best practice?

The following response was provided in writing in accordance with Standing Order 63(9) as the oral question was not asked before the end of the time allowed for Oral Questions:

As described in previous responses, the events of 2020 have led to a re-prioritisation of activities across Government to accommodate the response to the pandemic which has caused some necessary delays.

The Government Plan 2021-2024 states that information in the UN classification will be published alongside the 2021 Annual Report and Accounts and the Government Plan 2023-2026.

Currently considerable focus is being directed towards the implementation of the new Integrated Technology Solution in 2021 which will provide a good opportunity to align these requirements with the wider reporting developments.
