WQ.253/2025
WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE MINISTER FOR INFRASTRUCTURE BY DEPUTY C.D. CURTIS OF ST. HELIER CENTRAL
QUESTION SUBMITTED ON MONDAY 2nd JUNE 2025 ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON MONDAY 9th JUNE 2025
Question
"Further to the adoption of the Twenty-First Amendment to the Government Plan 2024-2027, to improve access to sports facilities in the East of the Island, will the Minister detail the timetable for improvements to Le Rocquier School and Community Sports Facilities?"
Answer
The commitment remains to improve community sports facilities in the east of the Island and support school sport in the delivery of such projects.
Some funds were utilised in 2021-2023 to support urgent refurbishment work on the sports facilities at Le Rocquier, pending delivery of a larger scheme. Further funding was utilised as part of the Inspiring Active Places workstream to develop options for the site.
Feasibility work is progressing on developing plans and funding options for a new 3G pitch and changing room facilities on the Le Rocquier site. Subject to funding being made available, it is hoped that detailed planning could commence in 2026/27, with delivery in 2027/28.
We are also working with the Parish of St. Clement to lease the Parish a parcel of land for a new play area and pump track near the Parish Hall .
I am also aware of the willingness that exists for significant private investment in sport facilities, including in the east of the island. We must continue to seek and support this investment, including partnerships with private investors, to deliver new and improved sport facilities.
