States Greffe: Scrutiny
Senator John Le Fondré Chief Minister
19-21 Broad Street
St Helier
JE2 3RR
28 May 2019
Dear Chief Minister
OneGov Review – Follow up Request for Further Information
I am writing to express the Panel's disappointment with the brevity of your response of 13 May 2019, to our request for further information in relation to the One Gov consultation.
While we did receive the letter you refer to from the Director of People Services, the Panel wishes to make clear that our request for information was directed to you as Chief Minister. We would therefore expect a full response from you outlining whether or not you will be providing the information requested.
Whilst noting the letter from the Director of People Services, we maintain our request to be provided with all employee submissions to the One Gov consultation, as we are entitled to under the Scrutiny/PAC Engagement Code (the Code).
We consider that this is a matter covered by the Code and the Code of Conduct for Elected Members (in Standing Orders) and not a matter for the summons process set out in the States of Jersey (Powers, Privileges and Immunities) (Scrutiny Panels, PAC and PPC) (Jersey) Regulations 2006.
In light of your previous comments about the importance of access to information for scrutiny panels when you were a scrutiny chairman and president of Chairmen's Committee, we trust that we will receive your full cooperation with this request.
We look forward to working with you and receiving a more detailed and considered response to our request.
Yours sincerely
Connétable Karen Shenton-Stone Chair, One Gov Review Panel
