PERSONAL STATEMENT BY DEPUTY N.B. LE CORNU OF ST. HELIER ON 9th SEPTEMBER 2014

On Thursday 4th September 2014 I published a generalised tweet on my Twitter account. It did not specifically mention any individual by name. It was intended as a political comment connected to a Member of this Assembly.

Although no specific person was named, I accept the comment was inappropriate in the circumstances. I unreservedly apologise for publishing the comment and any offence it has given to the member, their family and supporters, together with any discredit brought on this Assembly by so doing. I have also expressed my apologies in private emails with the member in question.
