Item 1 08/11/06.

Planning and Environment Department Public Consultation on Archaeology and Planning.

2.

Item 6 02/11/06.

Design of Homes Website development for public consultation.

The Panel recalled that it had previously authorised the graphic design and the development of a questionnaire for the Design of Homes  Review.  It  was  advised  that  the  lead  member  had subsequently discussed dissemination and public engagement with Orchid Communications. The lead member having considered a number of options decided to seek a quote from the Scrutiny Web developers  to  produce  a  software  template  to  allow  on  line completion of the questionnaire together with a data collation back office document. The total cost for the interactive questionnaire and data collation was £950.

The interactive questionnaire would then be used as the basis for an email campaign through large local companies to target 20-35 year olds who may not normally participate in the Scrutiny process.

The Panel noted that the questionnaire could appear on the website in its current PDF but that this would require the handling of hard copy by the target audience and the officers.

It was estimated that the work would take 8 days and that the template would provide a basis for future similar projects.

The Panel decided that the Chairman and the lead member should meet  with  the  developer  to  ensure  that  any  expenditure  would represent value for money.

Fact Finding Visit.

Deputy  P.N. Troy  was  welcomed  to  the  meeting.  The  Panel considered an invitation from the Chairman to Deputy Troy to join the Panel on the fact finding visit. Having considered the views of the  Panel  Members,  the  Chairman  agreed  that  it  was  more appropriate that Deputy Troy did not participate.

On  consideration  of  the  visit  to  Malmo  and  Vienna,  the  Panel decided that there was so much work to be done in Vienna that the Malmo section would be too much to do in one visit. The Panel would attend the GovNet Sustainable Development UK Conference in London on Tuesday 28th November, Cardiff Material Recycling

Facility the following day and then Vienna. The Panel would return

to Jersey on Sunday 2nd December 2006. RD, KB, (SP Left during this section)
