WRITTEN QUESTION TO CHAIR OF THE COMMONWEALTH PARLIAMENTARY
ASSOCIATION (JERSEY BRANCH) EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE
BY DEPUTY M.B. ANDREWS OF ST HELIER NORTH
QUESTION SUBMITTED ON MONDAY 27th OCTOBER 2025
ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON MONDAY 3rd NOVEMBER 2025
Question
"Further to the response to Written Question 132/2024, in respect of overseas trips undertaken on Commonwealth Parliamentary Association business since June 2022, will the Chair provide an update and advise for each Member –
- the number of overseas trips undertaken;
- the number of days spent overseas; and
- the total cost of trips?"
Answer
The Committee has committed to pro-active publication of this information and the detailed data for 2024 can be found within the annually published report of CPA and APF activities –
The information for 2025 to date is provided in the below table and lists only those Members who have undertaken CPA trips during this period. For completeness a table is also provided which shows the totals to date for all of the trips undertaken since June 2022.
The costs shown are those met from the States Assembly's budget, but it should be noted that in relation to certain trips, the flights and/or hotel costs were met by the CPA. Since 2024, Deputy Le Hegarat has been one of the British Islands and Mediterranean Region representatives on the CPA Executive Committee and consequently her travel and expenses in relation to trips relating to those activities have been covered by CPA UK.
